Beware: Lithium batteries can and do explode FYTube



Had a very sobering morning. It’s quite terrifying to wake up to the sound of smoke alarms, then to open your bedroom door and find your living room full of smoke and stuff catching on fire. So, please take heed to this warning: check your smoke alarm batteries, be sure you have a good fire extinguisher handy and DEFINITELY do not leave your external, spare, Lithium cell phone/iPad batteries on a charger overnight or left unattended. They can and do explode.

  1. Lithium batteries are produced by many manufacturers. They are not equally packaged. Even within the same batch there may be defective units that were not detected.

  2. I'm sure I could invent some sort of metal "charging box" that would hold these devices safely, and contain all the sparks and flying debris in the event of one exploding. At least any fire would be contained in the box and not spread around you're home. The box would give you much more time, while you're smoke/chemical alarm was triggered immediately. Glad you are safe.
