Unless somebody specifically installs an explosive charge in a device, it’s highly unlikely that modern power cells will detonate. If you want to get technical about it, they’re incendiaries. They don’t explode, they burn vigorously.

JimmyBigSausage OP ,

I am not asking about power cells 🤦🏽

Most portable electronics today use some variation of lithium ion batteries, which when it becomes unstable can combust/explode if mishandled. However, devices generally have thermal management software and hardware, as well as multitude of other safety mechanisms like power management systems to handle charge regulation. Unless you intentionally puncture your batteries, they’re not likely to cause any problems on their own.

Probably don’t charge while wearing.

They tend to catch fire and explode mostly during charging

JimmyBigSausage OP ,

I guess the question I am asking is how do I know someone hasn’t placed a bomb inside as is now happening with other devices in the world? (See current news)

GiveMemes ,

You don’t. Try not to piss off any national governments, especially unhinged ones (Russia, China, US, Israel, etc.)

sunzu2 ,

Israel gets away with killing Americans now too... I don't think others can do that without serious FO

GiveMemes ,

I mean Saudi Arabia showed that American citizens lives only matter when they align with national interests years and years ago

sunzu2 , (edited )

Damn... That's even a better example tbh.

But yeah... Big dick daddy only gonna daddy protector shit if you are on the right side of the propaganda.

GiveMemes ,

Yeah the best example is probably the Japanese internment camps during WW2. You don’t have ‘rights’, you have privileges. Rights can’t be taken away.

sunzu2 ,

Americans but not like that 🤡

dgriffith ,

That’s easy. Just fly somewhere and bring it in your carry-on, airport security will let you know.

grue ,

LOL, no they won’t. They’ll just make you throw out your nail clippers and water, while routinely missing shit that’s actually dangerous.

how do I know someone hasn’t placed a bomb inside

You learn enough about electronics to identify things that shouldn’t be in there, and then you open up and analyze your devices.

Alternatively, you could not become involved with an organization that is at war with a powerful country who has a capable spy/espionage agency.

A pretty flippant answer coming from someone living under a western government

Batteries do not explode, they burn.
