PHOTOS: Toms River: Vehicle Destroyed in Lithium Ion Battery Fire

The Pleasant Plains Fire Company responded to a vehicle fire today that was caused by a Lithium Ion battery.

The battery was a component of a wireless phone charger that is marketed for a wide variety of cell phones. The battery charger was left on a car seat.

The owner reported that that device was not working properly.

Many manufacturers recommend that Li-ion batteries are not left in direct sunlight. Owners of these products should follow all manufacturer instructions.
