helmet Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I thought of just throwing the EUC out of the second story window. Make sure nobody is below. How is safe to respond? My plan, throw it out the window. How do I put out a lithium battery fire, even if in my phone? better plan ... .. ... . .. ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tawpie Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) if and only if the fire is not terrifying use an ABC fire extinguisher or get it to a place where it won't catch other things on fire (away from curtains, bedding, walls etc.) get people out including yourself you or somebody else call 911 Skip step 1 if there is any doubt at all. Always do steps 2 and 3. Have somebody else call if you're busy with the fire or are busy getting people out. Let some other fool document it for facebook. But only from a place of safety.

Great advice, also if you have to leave the wheel and aren't able to extinguish it on your own please be sure to shut the door to whatever room the wheel is in, a closed door really helps contain a fire and slows down the growth while the firefighters are on their way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eucVibes Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 A dry chemical extinguisher would be great to have nearby : Amazon Dry Chemical / ABC Fire Extinguisher And this recent video I saw looks like a great idea aswell : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I charge mines in the tub covered with a welding blanket (partially for the pic) and opposite the shower head. Shower door slid shut and and only charged while I'm home...
