This is a lead-acid car battery. You\'ve been speculating about lithium ion batteries which you find in mobile phones which do get carried on to aircraft, but don\'t seem to blow them up.

Ambulance chaser logic. The plane went done, Boeing is worth suing, so it makes sense to allege that there was a defect in the design of the plane.

It\'s not evidence about what did go wrong, merely speculation about what might have gone wrong. The \"best theory\" is still just a theory, and will stay that way until we find enough of the wreckage to learn more.. which seems unlikely to happen.

Concerning an electrical fire, what about these 2 photos which show burn/scorch marks?:

https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/12/asia/mh370-fire-madagascar-blaine-gibson/index.html

They show discolorations. You can use an electron microscope set up to generate X-ray fluorescence from discolored areas to work out what is creating the funny colors.

The report doesn\'t mention the results of any such tests, so nobody seems to be taking the question seriously. I\'m not going to either.

According to a lady on a yacht:

- I was looking at what appeared to be an elongated plane glowing bright orange, with a trail of black smoke behind it.

https://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/f108/i-think-i-saw-mh370-127132.html

But nobody seems to have taken her seriously. You do get lots of attention-seeking behavior after big news stories.

As for the orange glow:

- The senior cabin crew member was summoned. At that point, a hiss was heard before a \"tornado\" of smoke appeared, accompanied by an orange glow....When phones are crushed or deformed, it can cause a lithium battery to become pierced. This, in turn, can cause the phone to ignite. According to the AAIB, a lithium battery is more likely to catch fire during or just after charging. At the time of the incident, the passenger had plugged the phone in.

Somebody else\'s minor disaster, with no obvious relevance to this major one.

And what about this witness:

- There was no noise, just black smoke as a result of fires before it crashed into the water. There was a strong smell of acidic fumes in the air before the plane went down, he added.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6597725/Fisherman-claims-SAW-MH370-recorded-EXACT-location-GPS.html
But it\'s the Daily Mail, in 2019. The \"witness\" might have recorded an exact GPS location. but either nobody took him seriously enough to look for wreckage from the plane around there, or they looked and didn\'t find any. The Daily Mail is infamous for the dubious quality of its \"journanlism\".

snipped more speculation about lithium ion batteries

That does seem to be Clive Irving\'s explanation. He\'s a journalist, not an aviation expert. A consignment of lithium batteries is unlikely to be shipped fully charged, and new batteries are very unlikely to go into thermal runaway. Again, there\'s no reason to take him seriously.

You can believe any lunatic theory you like, but give up on boosting it here. As I\'ve already pointed out, it make you look foolish, and there\'s no real point in touting in a forum that is aimed a people interested in electronic design. We\'ve all exploited rechargable batteries from time to time, but nobody has reported ever managing to set one on fire.

This is a lead-acid car battery. You\'ve been speculating about lithium ion batteries which you find in mobile phones which do get carried on to aircraft, but don\'t seem to blow them up.

Ambulance chaser logic. The plane went done, Boeing is worth suing, so it makes sense to allege that there was a defect in the design of the plane.

It\'s not evidence about what did go wrong, merely speculation about what might have gone wrong. The \"best theory\" is still just a theory, and will stay that way until we find enough of the wreckage to learn more.. which seems unlikely to happen.

Concerning an electrical fire, what about these 2 photos which show burn/scorch marks?:

They show discolorations. You can use an electron microscope set up to generate X-ray fluorescence from discolored areas to work out what is creating the funny colors.

The report doesn\'t mention the results of any such tests, so nobody seems to be taking the question seriously. I\'m not going to either.

That does seem to be Clive Irving\'s explanation. He\'s a journalist, not an aviation expert. A consignment of lithium batteries is unlikely to be shipped fully charged, and new batteries are very unlikely to go into thermal runaway. Again, there\'s no reason to take him seriously.

I\'m not so sure about your second point. I was told by somebody with first hand knowledge of

for a few days before shipping them. Now, they tend to ship as soon as possible which means that
failures in transit may be more likely.

You can believe any lunatic theory you like, but give up on boosting it here. As I\'ve already pointed out, it make you look foolish, and there\'s no real point in touting in a forum that is aimed a people interested in electronic design. We\'ve all exploited rechargable batteries from time to time, but nobody has reported ever managing to set one on fire.

It more likely means that they check them for self-heating as they come off the production line and sling out any potential early failures rapidly.

Paying for quarantine space is expensive, and would justify spending money on test gear that could get the result faster.

Better production techniques might have just eliminated the problem. Producing better batteries faster does involve understanding what you are doing in more detail - one of my undergraduate friends has a granddaughter who is about to marry a guy who has just got a Ph.D. in lithium battery chemistry. The field has moved on a lot in recent years.

Cant imagine why. Oh of course. Russian propaganda links \'uranium\' to
\'radiation\' to \'health hazard\'  which is of course bollocks, but
simple people will believe it.

There will actually be health hazards from the dust created -
uranium is
highly poisonous. I\'m not sure that the level on danger means that they
should not be used though.

If you are in a tank that gets hit by a U238 round, ingesting thee dust
is the least of yur problems.
The dust is heavy and really inert. Its not going to drift around. It
will go back into the soil where it came from in the first place

It\'s depleted, less radioactive than the stuff they dug up.

But still a lot more concentrated than the raw ore mixed with the reast
of what is dug up.

The poisonous dust from impact can affect civilians disturbing that area
years later.

yeah, so can lead, asbestos, cigarette smoke, crop dust, brake dust....

and land mines.
