Batteries

Watching the news just makes me worry. The whole battery situation is my current dilemma. Did you see the guy's pants pocket explode and ignite on the news footage recently? It was a rechargeable battery in his E-Cig.

I have a rechargeable battery in this monitor unit that is attached to my chest. I was offered the option of wearing it on a lanyard around my neck, or just tucking it in my bra. I tired it around my neck. The lanyard irritated my neck and because the wires were hanging out I kept accidentally yanking them off the patches and then having to reattach them. Could be why she said most women just tucked them in the bra .....

But I don't want to suddenly ignite inside my bra, well, outside either. Just another thing to ponder in my insomniac mind.

Don't put it in your bra because of me, but I believe the exploding batteries are cheap, no name, off shore brands. A certified battery should be safe.

You probably won't have a problem. Sleep tight.

Well...if it's a big enough explosion, you'll never know about it. And if it's just a small one, it will only be a flesh wound. But I'm sure it won't explode. It's NOT an eCig.

There are so many things I could "fix" if only I could remember all the things that go through my mind on those nights.

this is America now...no regulation and a race to the bottom of the cheapest and most crappiest product.
