The claim every e-scooter is going to burn your house down is the alarmist fantasy. The proposition that we should give up on all lithium ion batteries because some manufacturers don't design their products carefully enough is not appropriate to sci.electronics.design. You don't even claim to be able to design stuff, so this may pass you by. John Larkin does like to claim that he does design stuff, but isn't all that convincing. -- Bill Sloman, Sydney -- This email has been checked for viruses by Norton antivirus software. www.norton.com
