EV Fire as “a Trick Birthday Candle”

❓Did you know? If an #EV catches on fire, it’s difficult to be put out, just like a trick birthday candle—a huge one. 

A #Tesla crash in the U.S. in April took 8 firefighters, 7 hours and 28,000 gallons of water to put out the fire, because the car kept reigniting itself with the batteries in it. The same volume of water serves an average American home for nearly 2 years. 

#EVs with lithium-ion #batteries are large moving electrical energy tanks and can be a considerable hazard. It is vital that everyone from car drivers to first responders is well advised of how to minimize the risk and damage when accidents happen. 

Or better, to avoid EV fire from the beginning. The Active Safety Mechanism by ProLogium Technology can stop the triggered thermal runaway of batteries and could be the game-changer.
