I will edit my post.
I had been under the impression that water was bad on Li-Ion batteries, we have too many technologies!
Unfortunately Robert many people see the word Lithium and remember the experiment with Sodium and water from school days. Unfortunately they don't do any research to find that the Lithium in a Li-ion battery is in the form of a Lithium salt, dissolved in an organic solvent to make the electrolyte. Finding the firefighting information for Li-ion batteries is much harder, indeed had my recurrent fire training not covered it I would probably still be looking. The advice given in other web sites is valid, evacuate the area etc. but none mentions the use of copious quantities of water, I have no idea why.


Thank You Geof , for Clearing-Up this matter.

Li-ion`s were Unchartered territory to me..

Like Robert says ; Too Many technologies..:bowing:
