PSA rechargeable batteries…

Yes they are green as in better for the environment, but they do not last forever. Last Friday during the funeral our scanner died within five hours. Batteries usually last 8 hours. Ok, so today got a new set, but we had a fire start before I changed them. I just changed them, forward spread has stopped, and all that. They were getting very hot to the touch. This is when they are charging than they should, becoming a fire danger.

If you notice with rechargeable batteries that they are doing that… get them out for whatever device you are using them, and get new ones. And trust me, my Uniden Trunk Tracker IV scanner is not precisely cheap. Nor would the fire be cheap. So consider that just a PSA.

Hmmmm.  One wonders whose funeral.

1. Does that apply to Li ion batteries?

I have a device (okay, an e-cig) that works fine, or at least did, but now it gets how when charged and used.

2. Rechargeables

If you’re talking about AA or AAA batteries, Eneloops (I think by Panasonic) last very well.  I have been less than impressed with a lot of other rechargeable batteries but these last for a long time and I have never had them get hot when charging (I use a good charger too, some of the ‘fast chargers’ I’ve had in the past would get very hot).  Anyway, ymmv but they’re the only batteries I buy now.

1.) Rechargeable batteries have a finite life.

2.) Healthy rechargeables get warm or very warm during charging.

3.) In my experience, at least, rechargeables show that they are at end-of-life by reduced time between charges or inability to hold a charge.

4.) Lithium ion batteries can combust, though usually due to serious over-heating or impurities in manufacture.

None of that is really news.

This is the best translation I can come up with.
Quote
"Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth...oh and replace your old rechargeable batteries or you could burn your house down."

A first responder? Security at a "Little People's" convention?

Sorry, couldn't resist (and didn't try).

Not really news. So you're saying it falls exactly within nadin's wheelhouse.

Here is a news story about exploding defective lithium batteries in laptops. When everything got analyzed it turned out that metal particles had gotten into the lithium batteries during manufacture. This was 10 years ago.

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

Building on the battery topic - the firs hazard is why they are banned on the cargo compartments of passenger jets to this day. A fire on a UPS cargo jet departing out of Dubai brought the plane down and killed the crew.

Quote
UPS Airlines Flight 6 was a cargo flight operated by UPS Airlines. On September 3, 2010, a Boeing 747-400F flying the route between Dubai International Airport and Cologne Bonn Airport developed an in-flight fire, with the fumes and subsequent crash resulting in the death of the two crewmembers.
