http://www.nfpa.org/assets/files/pdf/osvehicle.pdf Public fire departments responded to 329,500 vehicle fires in the United States during 2002. These fires caused 565 civilian deaths, 1,825 civilian injuries and $1,392,000,000 in direct property damage. (See Table 1.) Vehicle fires accounted for 20% of the 1,687,500 fires reported to U.S. fire departments that year. In that same year, vehicle fires caused 17% of all civilian fire deaths, 10% of all civilian fire injuries and 13% of the nation’s property loss to fire. More people died from vehicle fires than from apartment fires, and vehicle fires caused seven times the number of deaths caused by non-residential structure fires.1 What do those fires Mean for ICE vehicles? ----- Original Message ---- From: brucedp5 <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tue, January 22, 2013 3:53:15 AM Subject: Re: [EVDL] Lithium ion type chemistry in 787 fire [ref http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/EVLN-Voltage-ruled-out-in-Boeing-li-ion-battery-fire-td4660746.html EVLN: Voltage ruled out in Boeing li-ion battery fire NTSB: Plane battery that burned was not overcharged What Does the Boeing Dreamliner Li-Ion Battery Fire Mean for EVs? ] -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/Lithium-ion-type-chemistry-in-787-fire-tp4660615p4660753.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA) _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
