RED ALERT: Beware of the dangers of Lithium-ion batteries

MAJOR RED ALERT: What's sitting in your garage, charging in your bedroom, or parked in your driveway could be a ticking time bomb.
·
You missed the story the corporate media barely covered: Matson, a US shipping giant, just BANNED all electric vehicle shipments after 3 consecutive ship fires.
Their reason? The "hazards of lithium-ion batteries."
.
Why should you care? You're not shipping 3,000 cars across the ocean.
Because the same technology in those EVs is in YOUR home right now:
→ Your phone
→ Your laptop
→ Your e-bike/scooter
→ Your Tesla
→ Your lawn equipment
→ Your toothbrush
→ Your kid's toys
.
The stats are terrifying & they're being ignored:
🚨 NYC: Lithium battery fires increased 7X.
🚨 SF: Battery fires more than doubled.
🚨 Nationally: 40+ deaths from e-scooter/bike fires since 2017.
🚨 FAA: 60+ onboard battery incidents this year alone.
.
These fires aren't like normal fires. They're chemical infernos. Once they start, they are often UNSTOPPABLE. Fire departments are often told to just "let them burn."
.
The cause? A single point of failure:
✅ Overcharging
✅ Overheating (leaving an e-bike in the sun)
✅ Physical damage (a simple drop)
✅ Manufacturing defect
✅ Water exposure (flooded EVs burn houses down)
.
This is a direct threat to your family and your home.
YOUR ACTION PLAN NOW:
.
1. STOP overcharging devices. Unplug them once charged.
.
2. NEVER leave devices (especially e-bikes) charging unattended or overnight.
.
3. KEEP them out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources.
.
4. INSPECT batteries regularly for damage, swelling, or punctures.
.
5. CONSIDER a fire-proof containment bag for larger batteries (e-bikes, scooters).
.
This isn't fear-mongering. It's a public safety emergency happening in silence. The government isn't acting. The media isn't warning you.
Your safety is your responsibility.
SHARE this to warn everyone you know.
