Director of the Information Policy Department of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Russian Federation Roman Okhotenko said that every day in Russia from 3 to 10 fires occur due to charging gadgets.
He asked not to leave his devices on charge overnight. Parents should leave monstrous acts, for example, to their children. The rescue device, if a fire occurs, can become an autonomous fire detector.
In modern conditions, fires are increasingly occurring due to improper or uncontrolled charging of batteries, batteries, robotic vacuum cleaners and electric scooters. From 3 to 10 fires per day in Russia occur due to the fire of rechargeable batteries while they are charging.
