There are YouTube videos of lithium-ion battery fires. However, it is a rare event. There were some problems with some Samsung phones and a few Teslas made the news but I haven't heard of anything recently. I have a number of lithium-ion battery powered devices in my home and don't worry about it. You are most likely carrying a lithium-ion battery in your back pocket if you have a cellphone.
