A dramatic explosion of a laptop has raised safety concerns among users. The suspected cause of the explosion was its lithium-ion battery – the same that had caused Samsung explosions in the past.
In the video a laptop on charge is seen to catch fire, not once but four times.
Here are a few tips on how to avoid such an accident:
- Charge you phone/laptops/tablets in an open area
- Do not charge your phone on your bed, which may cause overheating
- Do not overcharge your phone
