What do you do when your power bank catches fire?
buy new one
piss on it
i try getting a job so i dont use cheap chink devices anymore
do nothing and wait
why would anyone own a power bank?
>>107070854pour water over it
open /g/ and create a thread asking what others would do about it
Do lipo pouches work for lion?
>>107070854Return it to IKEA, ask for refund, live on the streets.
>>107070885second post, BEST post.>>107070915>>107070957Good posts.>>107071000Borderline based.
>>107070919>I dont travel anywhere : the post
>>107070854Despite popular believe power banks don't "catch fire" they simply evaporate hot chemistry with a lot of smoke. Unless something flammable is close there won't be any fire.
>>107070854>What do you do when your power bank catches fire?throw them into the trash
>>107070854i have a bucket of sand for those situations.
>>107070854It's basically a bomb at that point. If you want to risk it, throw it outside, or try to starve it of oxygen by covering it. I'd probably toss a pan over it, to try to starve it of oxygen and contain the blast radius
because it's actually a lithium polymer battery, they are very hard to extinguish the fire
>>107070854you buy this
>>107071605Plenty of them contains 18650 batteries, and you can usually tell by the shape.
>>107070854You learn to hate the CCP.
>>107070854take it out of my ass.
>>107071114well since I'm neither a woman or a poo, I really don't see a point in having one...
>>107070854throw it out the window
>>107071996This, not my problem anymore.
>>107070923Doesn't work, the lithium battery pack's reaction is exothermic once started. It needs to be dunked in a bucket of water that you periodically pour back more water into, to completley smother it. Can take a few hours to a few days to end the reaction - depending on the size of the battery pack. Hold your breath while grabbing and dunking the battery as well, and leave the room after. The fumes are highly toxic.
>>107072165It's retarded that these batteries aren't banned on passenger jets.
>>107072178would you like to fly somewhere without your phone or any devices that have batteries?you can't put lithium batteries into checked luggage. you can only take them with you onboard, and if they catch on fire there are some special bags that can contain them. and probably the pilot will emergency land somewhere asap, but not sure
>>107070885Only sensible answer.Urea neutralizes lithium.
>>107070854I live nearby a river for this exact reason
>>107070854roast marshmallows for an unforgettable tangy flavor!
>>107070854just throw it in a saucepan and cover it with a lid and then put the whole thing outside until it stops burning
I wouldn't know because I always throw out batteries the instant they start acting weird. The only people in real danger of lithium fires are poorfags with ebikes living 4 to a shitty apartment.
>>107070919>shut-in NEET gets confusedWould get a slight chuckle out of me if it weren't for the lack of originality.
>>107071114When I travel I don't use my phone 24/7 so battery life is a non issue and when it's work related I have a charger in my car anyways. Sounds like you should put the phone down once in a while when your parents drag you outside.
>>107071927>NEET living off mental disability paygender and race are completely irrelevant, as is the case for 99.9% of things in life
>>107072620it's burning, how do I touch it?
>>107072982bbq tongs
>>107071115>Unless something flammable is closesuch as the gasses it produces?
>>107073108It doesn't>b-but..It doesn't
>>107070919>phone about to die when out in town, plug sockets not always readily available unless you're able to go into a coffee shop>be innawoods and need to charge phone or anything usb powered>when there's no sockets on public transport>when flying, no sockets or the USB ports on the in-flight entertainment are too loose / weakthere's a bit more but those are the essentials
>>107073358>plug sockets not always readily availableIn a motel/hotel room? lol>be innawoodsI am not a bear>public transportI am not brown>when flyingI am not dumb
>>107070854I would listen and that's what no one else did
>>107070854Power banks are the weirdest fucking concept ever, literally made in response to an artificial problem that doesn't need to exist -- the lack of easily removable batteries. Those are so much more efficient than having to waste energy transferring electrical charges from this thing.
put it in my vagina
>>107074056Im using mine through 3 phone upgrades. Now if all phones used the same battery and are interchangeable id be in agreement.
>>107070854fuck you op, I was literally just unwrapping my finest chinesium heated gilet. I suspect the manufacturers address is designed to discourage written complaint.
>>107070893Everything is made in China anyway.
>>107076273cope, some are designed by Americans or yuropoors. Buy those.
>>10707089390%of devices you use are made in china, rest is still made with near 100% parts made in china you fucking retard. every single thing you use is for all intends and purposes 100% Chinese.
>>107076284I don't trust anglo, french or italian electronics. Only if its Germanic, Scandinavian or Japanese.
>>107070854
>>107070854throw it at whoever pisses you off them most
>>107076284>designedAnon... American devices usually have the most risky batteries, because they have higher capacity/weight ratio than LFP batteries even though they are less safeEven then, everything is still made in china lmao
>>107076284Nah fuck those guys.
>>107073385>I am not a bearstill a faggot though
>>107077727okay gaylord, go back to your fantasy land where electricity isn't available everywhere
>>107071927OBSESSED
>>107072447Which river do you live next to in Russia?
>>107072348Do they give you an oven mitt to grab it
>>107073385>>be innawoods>I am not a bear>>when flying>I am not dumb>I am not brownAt the very least, you are spiritually brown.
>>107079587For not buying the ewaste battery bank? For not flying jeetairlines?
>>107074056even with removable batteries it would often make more sense to carry a universal power sourceit is not practical for every device to use the same type of removable battery pack
>>107071114Travel where? With a plane, bus, car or train you can charge your devices, are you climbing a mountain or something?
>>107079702>Using malware super spreader insecure usb hubs in public transport >Using equally bad sockets that fry electronics as soon as train or bus starts to brakeYou deserve anything that will happen.
>>107079822sounds like a thirdie problem
>>107070854i have a bomber jacket with internal heating(cyb3rpunkm4xx1n6) and the chink powerbank i bought for it werks even after 3 years of active use.
