[quote=Anonymous]Hi.  OP here.  I am officially obsessed (yes I have anxiety issues! - but legitimately so!) with the fire hazard risk of eBike batteries.  I went ahead and bought at Bat-Safe XL (https://www.bat-safe.com/ebike-battery-safety).  Very happy with this purchase and feel it will prevent catastrophic fire.  However, gases can still escape so will keep it in small room, with door, with smoke alarm and window when using. Will keep eBikes in shed overnight as long as possible (when not too cold).  Can warm up the battery in the Bat-Safe inside and then when warmed up, charge outside.  Am planning to get rid of these cheap bikes and get an eBike with a Bosch battery - these seem to be the safest.  Once I get a Bosch battery + the Bat-Safe, I will feel significantly better.

I think eventually houses and apartments will have eBike rooms next to their garages with chargers, basic heat, & good ventilation.  Also, I think the DMV should also adopt the laws they now have in NYC that require eBikes/eScooters to be UL certified.  I think Amazon can't even deliver the cheap, non-UL certified bikes there anymore.  [/quote]
