Electric Car Goes Up in Flames Due to Cheap Charger
Story by Camilla Jessen • 4h


An electric car caught fire in Melbourne’s eastern suburb of Glen Waverley, destroying a garage and prompting a safety warning from fire crews.

The blaze was caused by an aftermarket charger that was being used to power the Nissan Leaf, Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) reported, as cited by Drive magazine.
 
The fire occurred on Tuesday, with crews arriving within five minutes to find the car completely engulfed in flames.

Two people and a dog managed to escape the house unharmed.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
