  2. Wow! Somebody got a bad phone call. I hope that was not you. Lithium batteries have a history of occasionally catching on fire. The technology needs improving. The Tesla batteries are also not performing as well as they should in high heat and cold weather temperatures...they lose power. One would think these gadgets are cheap and you get what you pay for. Not so.

    1. Not me. Teslas are catching fire too, but there is a campaign against Elon Musk to highlight them, I think.

  3. Then they allow us to use them on planes but we can't open the plastic bag full of duty free.
