Has anyone made a lease revision to include verbiage on charging Electric bikes? Scary they can cause this to happen. This is a concern for apartments. We require renters insurance which is a good step for liability. What have you seen?

Charging car batteries could become a big problem too.

We had one that burned down a few apartments from charging a bike battery.

A battery is a battery. Why make it specific to bikes??? I doubt you can name any specific type of lithium battery device that hasn’t had fire related issues.

Miles Scruggs I appreciate your perspective. Minimizing risk to my clients is part of my role at my firm, so just trying to work on possible solutions and ultimately awareness. I wasn’t even aware these could start fires until I started seeing the aftermath in photos like above.

Jessica Siderius mitigating risk is a great thing if you understand it and more importantly in rational proportion to other risks that you would consider acceptable. More often than not new and previously unencountered risk is magnified in people’s minds and isn’t proportional to other risks in their lives.

Miles Scruggs Thank you for your perspective.

My Maintenance Super said he had 2 fires due to the bikes at his last community down here in Key West

All lithium batteries can burn/explode if faulty......ALL OF THEM!
