Reply to comment by FreedomCorn in Fires from exploding e-bike batteries multiply in NYC — sometimes fatally by zsreport

How can I learn about the proper way to do all of this?

Usually a manual or instructions. Sometimes called directions.

So all of these batteries come with these instructions and people are just not reading them?

Back in my LiPo RC car days, chargers had to go on timers so you didn’t come home to ashes and jail time. IIRC, nowadays you can buy a charger with variable output that has a built-in timer but they’re $$$$$. (That’s why all the cheap-China scooters don’t come with them built in, right?)

That's actually a good idea.

Except I don't know how common outlet timers are.

Overcharging is when you leave your charger on forever instead of charging the device and removing it from the charger when it’s done charging.
