Mobile phone elements can cause a fire in a gas station

When entering the gas pump, remember to turn off your phone, never unplug your phone, or you'll have serious consequences like the young man in the clip below.

Phone wave . At gas stations, there is a phenomenon of gas evaporating, turning into gas that creates charged ions in the space around the gas station.

When a user calls or receives a call or uses a wireless connection: GPRS, 3G, wifi, bluetooth . will make the mobile phone broadcast capacity many times higher than the "wait" status. .

Then, if there is resonance and electromagnetic interaction, the wave can generate "catch" sparks on the gas vapor causing an explosion.

However, this factor has not been recognized by experts in reality but only in theory.

The probability of causing a fire due to phone waves is extremely low, it is difficult to happen in practice because the intensity of the waves is never strong enough to create electric sparks as well as the extremely ideal environment conditions to cause fire.

The unusually hot temperature of the phone can cause explosions, electric sparks that come in direct contact with the gas vapor, causing an explosion.

Unusual temperature of the mobile phone . When making or receiving calls, connecting to the internet or playing "heavy" games, the temperature of the phone will increase very quickly.

Meanwhile, phones often use heat dissipation solution through the casing, from plastic casing to alloy casing.

If the internal components do not guarantee quality, it is possible that the temperature will pass through the shell, especially the alloy case. Abnormal heat, plus friction with pants, can cause fire.

More dangerous, the unusually hot temperature of a mobile phone can cause explosions, electric sparks that come into direct contact with gasoline vapor, causing an explosion.

No matter how hot the phone is, it's not as hot as the car's "pô" or engine, so if there's no spark coming from it it's unlikely to cause an explosion at the gas station.

Battery in the mobile phone . It is possible that poor quality batteries or too long use has worn out the contact point between the battery and the phone, can generate electrical sparks when users use the mobile phone to listen, call .

It often happens that the impact of the battery is that it accidentally drops the device to the ground, causing sparks from the battery itself.

There are also many opinions that mobile phone expansion features such as xenon flash or LED flashlights for photo shading are also likely to ignite light bulbs.
