        Since lithium-ion fires can produce its own oxygen supply it wouldn’t work as an extinguishing method but, it could be used to contain the toxic and flammable fumes the fire would create

      Nor anything else as the fire creates its own oxygen and thus must be allowed to burn itself out.

      You put it in a box and set that box on fire. You have to fight fire with fire.
