INEOS boat fire

This must stay away from any EV thread...

AMERICA'S CUP. A fire broke out last Friday in Barcelona aboard Athena, one of the two AC40s in the Ineos Britannia challenge, following an electrical incident with the lithium battery.
Irrelevant unless upu can advise of the precise type of battery.
For most cruising yachts LiFePO4 is recommended as safer than some other types.
But an AC boat likely to be pushing the technologies for max power for minimum weight. So perhaos no more relevant to real world than an F1 car crashing.
