I wonder why this happens. Cell phones and laptops also have lithion batteries. I remember them causing fires for a few years, and then it seemed to be over.

So is there something more unsafe about an ebike? Bigger capacity? Or is quality control lacking? Or are they too new and in their 'teething probelms' part of the tech curve? Or are cellphone and laptop batteries burning just as much as they used to, but the news stoped reporting it, while ebikes are the new and scary thing?
