BRUNSWICK HILLS TWP., Ohio — This October, Brunswick Hills Twp. Fire Chief Anthony Strazzo said the National Fire Protection Association is setting a week aside to educate people on lithium-ion batteries.

But in the meantime, Strazzo is urging the community to be careful when using them following one woman’s recent experience.

“It’s crazy how many things that you really don’t think of that this could happen to,” said Kelly Gualdoni.

Gualdoni told News 5 she’s in shock after she recorded a video that showed the moments her lithium-ion battery blew up while she charged a chainsaw in her garage.
