Laptop battery fires are one scary problems to have. I can imagine someone using their Sony laptop, and the laptop's battery catching on fire causing the laptop's battery to explode which causes pieces from the laptop to explode off the laptop, and throwing flames, and parts at the user's hands, face, and the front of their body, and latter burning down their home.

I agree one of the dangers of using tech is not knowing when it would blow up.

It can be very dangerous if your laptop suddenly explodes in your backpack making your back catch on fire, and possibly exploding next to your back causing metal and plastic parts to stab you in the back from the laptop battery explosion in your backpack, and ripping  up your backpack.
