On the morning of November 6, 2024, a homeowner in the western suburbs of Sydney experienced a close call with an exploding e-bike battery. Around 2 a.m., the e-bike caught fire in the backyard of the home. The homeowner, realizing the danger, quickly threw the flaming bike outside, just moments before the fire could escalate further.

Fire and Rescue New South Wales (FRNSW) responded to the emergency call and arrived at the scene to extinguish the blaze. The firefighters acted quickly, preventing the fire from spreading to the rest of the property. The battery was carefully handled and placed into a tub of water to ensure it wouldn’t reignite, a common safety precaution when dealing with lithium-ion battery fires.

The damage caused by the fire is estimated at $10,000, primarily due to the destruction of the e-bike and surrounding property. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, and the fire did not spread to the main house.

This incident serves as a reminder of the growing risks associated with electric vehicles and their batteries, which, if not handled properly, can be prone to overheating and combustion.

Early fire detection systems, like Planck Vision Systems’ advanced thermal imaging technology, could have provided an added layer of safety by detecting unusual temperature fluctuations before the fire ignited. These systems are designed to continuously monitor for any signs of abnormal heat, providing crucial time to prevent such incidents.
