The battery in any of the retina display iPads is a type referred to as LiPo. This means Lithium Polymer. When a LiPo battery has a cell short circuited, the composition of the battery causes it to begin to create oxygen inside the battery cells which then swell. The presence of oxygen in the cells can create a sudden explosion or fire. For more information, see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_polymer_battery#Risks_and_limitations|this Wikipedia entry].

The battery in any of the retina display iPads is a type referred to as LiPo. This means Lithium Polymer. My understanding is that when a LiPo battery has a cell short circuited, charging problems, or discharge problems, the composition of the battery causes it to begin to create toxic gas inside the battery cells which then swell. At this point, the battery's condition could create a sudden explosion or fire.
