For clarity, there’s no risk of the light (battery) exploding itself. The current shuts off immediately when shorted.

The scenario where there could be risk is if a metal shaving arcs the pad and there is a combustible gas or liquid in the immediate vicinity of the light. I would be way more worried about sparks from other sources (metal on metal, static electricity) in that environment than I would be about this flashlight.

Not really an issue for the vast majority of users but worth the disclaimer and the one star hit IMHO.
