From the PC Pitstop description:
"We intentionally created conditions in which the Li-ON battery pack would explode inside a generic portable. The 
results are dramatic.
There are numerous conditions where these fires can occur in real life.
Faulty battery packs (driving the recalls), faulty protection circuits inside the PC, exposure to excessive heat, and blunt 
force are some of the major ways that this could happen to you. "

4min 55secs but it's worth of watching:
