With the scorching heat, many people carry handheld electric fans to cool down, but beware of potential dangers! The Japanese fire department warns against blowing on the face after the fan has been dropped, as it may smoke, catch fire, or even explode due to internal lithium battery damage. A video shared by the Amagasaki Fire Department in Hyogo Prefecture on Instagram shows a model with a handheld fan suddenly exploding, emphasizing the need for caution. This serves as a reminder to avoid using damaged fans and to contact the manufacturer if any issues arise, as part of efforts to prevent fire incidents caused by electrical appliances in Japan.
