I was unaware that a lithium battery was liquid.

TIL, thank you, kind Lemmer.

Liquid in the scientific sense, it's more of a paste. Lithium hexafluorophosphate(aka LiFPO) mixed with Dimethyl carbonate or Diethyl carbonate which are just there to float the Lithium between the plates without letting it burst into flame from any humidity that might happen to reach in.
