A failed BMS and over charging can do this to them but no fire. See pic.
Certainly not trying to panic anyone. I've seen plenty of videos of Leaf cells not catching fire. That doesn't mean it is safe to continue using the swelled cells. The thread I linked to discusses a lot of the scenarios and information, and that is why I posted the link to it.

Maybe we need an additional "Stickey" that is titled differently so folks don't think anyone is trying to cause panic.

I've recently finished a build with 14 Leaf modules. I certainly would not have done the build if I thought it could be dangerous with utilizing appropriate safety inputs.

You have way more experience and knowledge than I have and I respect that, and you. With that being said. Would you not agree that any cells that have swelled, should not be used any further?
