    How do you overheat a standard AA battery? Just by shorting it?

      You physically can’t, unless you have a defective battery or you short the wiring, but that’s oblivious as soon as you insert the battery. Overheating a double a battery also won’t do much. Is it dangerous? Yes. But it won’t be a violent explosion.
