  This is a post I never thought I would write but I think it’s important to highlight this as we come up to Christmas, we have a lot of fires that can be prevented, from things like Christmas lights, cooking and other one that slips attention that caught my attention as I found myself watching Grand tour Clips and it Richard Hammonds second crash, in the Rimac, an electric vocal, they are quite sensitive around showing the footage, as the cameraman runs to help, https://youtu.be/gj3KqgPNeiY?si=YBO3bPQg4rF_HQNq But as we can see Amazon, Ben Collins and Andy Willman made changes to safety, but when you see James May talking about how long it took to put out, we are now realising the dangers of lithium-ion batteries   The explosions and they can’t be put out with water, I   then asked the question well what about mobility aid’s and communication devices and according to QFS web site yes they have the same batterie.
