ZDNet: overheating or bad smell may be the harbingers of an imminent smartphone explosion
Problems with charging your smartphone may indicate that the battery of the device may catch fire and explode. It is reported by the publication ZDNet.
Experts have noticed that in very rare cases, the batteries of smartphones and laptops can not only fail, but also explode. According to journalists, this is usually indicated by some features that may be harbingers of an unpleasant incident. In the material, the authors listed the signs of a battery failure soon.
First of all, battery failure and a possible explosion can be hinted at by problems with charging the device, frequent cases of gadget overheating, and the appearance of an unpleasant chemical smell. “It may not be the battery, but any strong smell coming from the gadget is a sign that it needs to be checked,” the authors noted. Also, in the event of a breakdown, the battery can swell and deform the body of the device.
If certain liquids leak from the machine or smoke appears, you cannot use the smartphone or computer. Experts recommended that you seek help from a specialist, but before that, move the gadget to a place where it will not cause serious trouble in the event of a fire. For example, you can place the machine on a metal tray or concrete floor.
