Exploding cigarettes.
Seems a chap was injured when the electronic cigarette he was charging
exploded. He was on oxygen, and the oxygen pipe or whatever got damaged making things far worse. Seems he may also have been using a charger which wasn't supplied with the cigarette kit. An 'expert' (think he may have been from the fire service) on the R4 PM prog explained that USB chargers are not all the same and could give a much higher voltage than the correct one for the device. So advised against charging such things from a computer USB socket, etc. He sort of admitted he wasn't an expert though. He didn't need to. -- *Velcro - what a rip off!* Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
