  • Patent number: 9281544
    Abstract: A battery pack test system is provided. The system includes a battery charging device that monitors an output voltage level of the vehicle battery pack. The system further includes a switch electrically coupled between an igniter and a voltage source. The system further includes a first video camera that generates a first plurality of images of an interior of the vehicle battery pack. The switch has a closed operational state at a first time in response to the output voltage level of a battery cell in the vehicle battery pack being greater than a threshold voltage level, to induce the igniter to generate a spark to generate a fire within an interior region of the vehicle battery pack.
    Type: Grant
