Is there any explosion-proof in AirPods?

I exercise while listening to music with airpods. But what if it suddenly explode because of my sweat? I thought to myself.
Does anyone know if airpods have explosion-proof or heat-sensing capabilities?

Hi elbanic,


Lithium-ion batteries do not explode. Media and reports have used that term too loosely and it has become perceptions that your device can turn into a bomb. If a lithium-ion fails the worst that happens is that it catches fire. This can be made worse depending on what material the device is sitting on when it caught fire. I'm sure Apple puts a lot of thought into the safety of their products. It wouldn't bold well for sales if peoples ears started catching on fire. 😉
