[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son (college age) just got a cheap eBike from Amazon, which I initially thought was a great idea - not knowing anything about eBikes. But now I was reading about the fire hazard from eBike Lithium batteries and am totally stressing out. We do not have a garage and it will be too cold soon to keep the battery and bike outside. That leaves inside. I live in a split level so not sure if there is any safe spot to charge it and store it. Have considered buying a BatSafe box or just getting rid of the eBike altogether. Am I over-reacting? Do others store their eBikes in their house? The battery is not UL certified but is Samsung. [/quote] Put it in a metal box on a non-flammable floor surface, or you could put it in a BBQ grill type thing or on top of a few "fire bricks". Fire bricks are not expensive really, and you could make a little spot for it with them to surround it when charging and sitting. [/quote]
