A Queensland man died from burns to most of his body after a lithium-ion battery fire erupted in an e-scooter connected to an incompatible charger, a coroner has found. The death of a man, referred to as Tyson, was an accident after he suffered burns to 90 per cent of his body in a blaze in March 2022, coroner Ainslie Kirkegaard ruled in the non-inquest findings published on Thursday.
Jade sustained burns to 50 per cent of her body and underwent surgery to deliver her baby. A fire investigation probed the possible sources of the blaze but concluded the e-scooter and a mobile phone were the only electrical appliances in use at the time of the fire. It could not categorically rule out the fire was lit by a human but deemed a strong likelihood that different voltages between the e-scooter and charger were behind the blaze.
