On September 2, 2024, a fire broke out at a commercial warehouse located at Buckeye Road and 71st Avenue in Phoenix. Initial investigations suggest that the fire may have been caused by overheating lithium batteries in wooden boxes outside the warehouse, which led to the spread of the blaze. The estimated property damage is approximately $500,000. No injuries were reported, but the fire’s impact was significant, and the cause is still under investigation.

The Phoenix Fire Department is investigating a fire reported Monday afternoon near a commercial warehouse located at the intersection of Buckeye Road and 71st Avenue.

Preliminary information suggests that the fire may have involved wooden boxes containing lithium batteries outside the warehouse, which led to an evacuation of the building. Officials told 12News that there is no current danger to the public and no injuries have been reported.

Further investigation confirmed that the fire was caused by the overheating of lithium batteries, which ignited and spread to the surrounding materials. The initial estimate of the property damage caused by the fire is approximately $500,000.

While the exact amount of the losses is still being calculated, the preliminary assessment indicates significant economic damage.

To prevent similar incidents in the future, government agencies are strengthening regulations regarding the storage and transportation of lithium battery products.

Additionally, fire departments recommend that commercial and industrial facilities install advanced fire detection equipment such as Planck Vision TNC thermal imaging cameras.

These devices can detect abnormal heat conditions before a fire erupts, thereby effectively preventing property damage and loss of life.

Unlike traditional systems that alert only after smoke and flames are visible, the Planck Vision TNC cameras offer a superior solution by identifying potential fire hazards early, thus providing a more reliable safeguard for both lives and property.
