    Thats one option, but just because the battery caught fire doesn’t mean the entire battery pack is going to catch fire.

    There are fire walls in the battery, so if you get to it in time, you could cool it off and prevent a breach of the next firewall, and then the fire will be stopped when those existing cells use all their energy.

    Within an hour doesn’t seem unreasonable in that case if everything went right.

        Oh, I assumed the explosion caught the battery on fire. Why would it take an hour to put out then? Wouldn’t it just go out immediately once watered?
