Battery safety

I recently saw a safety alert for UPP004 battery being a fire hazard. I wonder if it is only during charging, or if they burst into flames when sitting idle. I've enjoyed using this battery for 5 years and would like to continue, charging outdoors well away from buildings.

Thoughts and recommendations for a comparable UL approved battery are welcome.
