Wait till everyone is required to drive an electric vehicle. One battery fire and it will spread to the other cars like dominoes, eventually burning whole city blocks.

Just the other day, there was a woman rescued from a high rise apartment building that caught fire because of a lithium battery fire from a electric bike.

My bicycle travels four days to work and home before I recharge it. About 25 MPH. About 35 miles between charges. Of course rainy days is a no-go and if the temperature is below freezing, forget it. 48 volts and it takes about six hours to recharge. That’s a lot of DC Amps stored in that thing.

Battery tech is extremely pervasive and becoming moreso. Developing a better, lighter weight battery with greater energy capacity vs size ratio would bring in gigantic money to whoever came up with it. So I have to assume many many people are trying. So far what we have must be the most economical available.

So we get to live on the edge and get a cheap adrenaline rush every time we walk past one of these thngs ... for now.

“sparked by an electric bicycle’s lithium battery...”

Good thing there wasn’t a electric car charging in the courtyard, might have taken out the whole neighborhood!

Battery fire caused a house fire in Karmiel a week and a half ago.

I’m not sure “start up nation” was intended to mean tech fires.
