[Elecraft] Battery Leakage

[Richard Fjeld]

I like using Lithium-Ion batteries in a variety of sizes.  But having 
read about the possibility of fires, I have moved
my spares to a metal ammo box.  My flashlights are metal.  Cell phones 
and such are not metal so I try to keep
them away from flammables when unattended.

However, I noticed you said 'Lithium' not Lithium-ion.  Consumers have 
been using Lithium batteries for years.
