Lithium battery explosion mid-flight prompts passenger warning (news.aviation-safety.net)

I recently saw a youtube video of a lithium battery in a laptop catching fire randomly in a home and I started to think about all the laptops that get brought on planes. This article is about batteries in a pair of headphones catching fire, but it's the same idea. It seems like statistically all these batteries getting brought on planes is bound to eventually cause incidents like the one in this article. It's a little worrying...
