A mother and son were treated for smoke inhalation after a house fire in Erith, resulting from the catastrophic failure of lithium batteries.
The fire, which killed one of two cats, was caused by a lithium battery that released energy uncontrollably, creating ferocious flames and toxic vapors.
London Fire Brigade advises that lithium batteries should be stored away from living areas and emphasizes the importance of smoke detection in case of fire.
To prevent these dangerous fires, homeowners should avoid charging lithium batteries in escape routes and only purchase them from reputable sellers.
