Default Engine vibration effect on LiOn?

I had a LiOn batterys go out after about 9 flights and 2 charges. One of the cells in a 2 cell pack...just gave up. Fortunately, I was on the ground.

This battery was mounted with foam all the way around in the engine box.

Has anybody had any negative experience with LiOn's being affected by engine vibration? Not saying that vibration is what killed the batterys but I'm pre-supposing its one possibility.
