There have been more than 60 incident reports, including five where they actually caught fire, and four where users sustained minor burns.

User ID: 80193276 United States 12/06/2021 05:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I guess hey started out selling ear muffs for hearing protection with a built in radio. These are just earbuds with noise cancellation, so I guess people bought them because they liked the brand. Maybe they were more durable than other options? Lithium is certainly scary dangerous when it burns, so if it is having some issues, it should be recalled. I am still kind of amazed they allow anything with a lithium battery in it aboard airplanes. Airlines are so over the top about safety that you can't carry the tiniest pocket knife which is a safe and legitimate tool that everyone should carry, yet they will let people bring those lithium battery phones, laptops, games, etc with them. Not only can they start fires and give off horrendous fumes, but you can't just roll down the window and toss it out. If I was an airline employee and I knew there was a thousand or so lithium battery devices aboard, I would insist on a disposal airlock thing to jettison them overboard if they catch fire, along with whatever you would need to safely pick up a burning exploding laptop and carry it to the disposal device. Probably need fireman bunker gear. Look out below! Last Edited by JustmeTX on 12/06/2021 05:46 AM Justme |

User ID: 80575894 United States 12/06/2021 07:32 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I wear some tozo-Nc9s and they're the best earbuds I've ever owned.. fairly decent price. I paid 64 or so. Wireless charging case.. one ear bud has like 4-5 hours Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77967096 I only use one throughout the day. So I'll use one while the other is charging.. no lie without recharging the case itself.. I can listen to music or podcasts for 3-4 days straight. I have the tozo T12 ear buds, wife got them for me for my birthday this year. Damn good bass response, noise canceling, waterproof, havent ran the battery out on them yet even though I'll use them several hours at a time. No clue what she paid for them.... "Tempus Fugit" |
