Don’t leave an electric bike charging overnight and always use the charger and charging cord intended for that bike.
Fires caused by malfunctioning e-bike and e-scooter battery charging systems are a growing concern for firefighters throughout North America.
Four single-room occupancy hotels operated by non-profit housing groups on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside were damaged by fires caused by e-bike lithium-ion batteries in just a three-week period in August 2022. In June, a man in a Downtown Eastside SRO was killed when an e-bike battery exploded in his room.
Damaged or defective batteries can overheat, catch fire, or explode. According to City of North Vancouver Fire and Rescue, lithium-ion battery fires give off toxic gases and they burn extremely hot. Some e-bikes catch fire if they are left plugged in too long. E-bikes should also never be plugged in with an extension cord.
