787 Lithium Battery Fire

This has been big news in the DG/Aviation industry this week.  I am quite familiar with the new 787 main/apu battery and this was one of my concerns.  However, nothing is official yet and there had to be something to cause the battery to combust.  At this point, it is all wait and see.
