WHAT THE ???
« on: August 30, 2008, 10:13:00 PM »
Don't try this at home folks! My trailcam batt musta been fully charged! In my man junk clutter,some arras fell over and..............

 

Luckily it didn't burn the house down,never gave a thought to a battery bein dangerous stored in the spare bedroom. Guess it wouldn't have been if I kept my "stuff" organized!

Oh Yea, we had one of our work vans just about catch fire, a romex staple got across a loose 18v cordless drill battery.

Touch a 9V battery to a pad of steel wool, be ready cause it should turn orange real quick!

Ever put a battery in your pocket with a bunch of change? Little ones (1.5) get pretty warm, a 9-volt will put a burn on you. Don't ask how I know...

That's what those little plastic caps are for.  Lots of energy in one of those little cans.   :D

A 9 volt battery and steel wool should be in your hunting pack.( separated of course ) Makes a great emergency firestarter.  :D

Here's another surprise. My mother had a small magnifying glass in a cup with some pens and pencils, this was on her desk by the phone. She's had these items there for some time but the glass must have turned just so and sunlight coming through a nearby window, hit the magnifying glass and burned a spot on the nearby paneling. Quite a deep spot I might add !!! Once again, lucky it didn't burn the house down.

Ahh, job security.  I've been a professional firefighter/paramedic for 9+ years now.  I'd say the majority of the house fires I've been to have included poor houskeeping.  I'm glad it didn't get any bigger on you.  Keep safe.
