A power bank flashed on the passenger train. She was stored in her purse

Electronics can be a life-threatening risk in certain situations. Manufacturers of various equipment must test the product to ensure that it is safe for normal use before starting the sale. However, if a fault in the electronics is associated with certain conditions, such as high temperature, a danger may arise. Yesterday, August 1, such a dangerous situation occurred when a passenger on a train burst into the purse of a power bank. The Fire and Rescue Service hung this information on its Facebook page.

Firefighters from Nitra also came to intervene. The burning power bank left small traces behind

According to the Facebook page, the train, which was located in the village of Zbehy at the time of the event, carried approximately 150 passengers. The accident caused minor injuries to the owner of the power bank. She allegedly tried to put out the fire. Firefighters from Nitra came to the place, who treated the person in question.

The reason for the power bank to ignite is unknown, but we think that the good conditions for a fire were caused by the high temperature of the external charger. In addition, she was trapped in her purse, so the hot air had nowhere to escape. Of course, there could have been several reasons for this accident. It is important that similar situations do not happen again and we firmly believe that its owner is OK and without serious consequences.
