Inside UL's laboratories, lithium-ion batteries are pushed to the extreme so when it comes to evaluating the safety limits of mobile devices, like hoverboards, engineers understand how the batteries will operate within the device even under extreme conditions. In these videos, students can watch the drop test and projectile test filmed at the labs. This video supplements lessons on safety science and engineering, engineering and design, and energy. The video can also be used to introduce UL Xplorlabs Portable Electrical Power. See the News and Events page for articles about UL battery safety testing and safety standards created for lithium-ion batteries.

This collection of resources will actively engage students with videos, a quiz, and hands-on experiments while revealing the science and engineering behind electricity. Students will calculate energy consumption, learn about how a fault interrupts a circuit, as well as learn about how water molecules react to a negative charge, and so much more. These resources can be used to supplement a unit on energy/electricity. They can be integrated into curriculum or stand alone as hands-on activities, either in the classroom or during an afterschool program.
