The most dangerous thing on your next flight might be sitting in your carry-on bag. Your battery charger. Here's why. The FAA says lithium-ion battery fires on aircraft happen more than you think. 97 reported last year alone. That's nearly two every single week, and twice the number from 2024. Every fire trace back to an Android, iPhone, iPad, laptop, or chargers.
Any fire at 35,000 feet is serious. Southwest Airlines is the first carrier to take real action. In 10 days, every Southwest passenger gets one charger. That's it. And it cannot go ever into check bags, period. Every other airline should be taking their leave right now. Sign up for my free newsletter at GetKim.com.

Chapter 2: What recent incident prompted Southwest Airlines to limit chargers on flights?
And then it went on fire? Yes. What was it that Colton was chewing on?
It was a portable cell phone charger, something you'd carry on vacation. You're going to be away from a plug for a while, or you don't have an adapter, and you're taking a lot of photos or videos, and you want to charge your phone. It was just one of those. My wife and I had one each from when we would do traveling, and he loved it. I guess did a little counter surfing.
He's a very anxious COVID puppy. He spent the first few years of his life living every day with my wife at home because she was working from home.
Chapter 3: How serious are lithium-ion battery fires in commercial aviation?
And then she went back to work. So we were dealing with some anxiety issues.
So now I've seen the video and it's aimed in the middle of your living room. How did you know to check the cameras? Did you see it live or was it later when you saw your rug was on fire?
It was later, but the specific video that I was able to capture... So we have Simply Safe, and we were coming back from a family event, and the... notification came through that said that there was a fire alarm. And I'm like, okay, well, sometimes those are false. I mean, I've been a firefighter for a while, and I know that a lot of times they are false.
But then it immediately rang from the call center number, and they said, hey, we're receiving a fire alarm from your home. We can check the cameras. And I said, yeah, let's do that. And they said, well, we actually see that there's a fire in your living room, so we're going to transfer that to the fire department, to the 911 center. And my heart just sank.
I'm on the speakerphone in the car, so my wife and my kids hear this, too, so we're thankfully close to home. But that's like, okay, so we know something's actually going on, and I can't imagine what it possibly is. And then as we got home, nothing appeared to be causing any issues. There's no smoke coming out of anywhere. We get the house open, and it is pretty full of smoke at that point.

Chapter 4: What actions is Southwest Airlines taking regarding charger regulations?
Try to get the animals out, and I finished putting out what, thankfully, due to the, like, fire-retardant materials of the rug. That was good.
That was so smart. It was just, like, feet away from the couch as I'm watching that video. I'm like, that couch is about to go up in flames. I have to tell you, when I saw it, I was thinking, like, oh, my gosh, this whole house is going to go. This is just going to be so sad. But then the fire dissipated. I was like, wait, whoa, okay.
When we sent that video out, we got more comments, I think, on, hey, what kind of rug was that? Then like, oh, thank goodness everybody's okay or anything like that.
So as a fireman, was it thermal runaway that happened on that battery?
Yeah, absolutely. So he got a hold of it. We crate him all the time now, and he's not allowed to play with any electronics anymore.
You took away his Apple Watch too, right?
Oh, yeah, 100%. Yeah, lighters, matches, and anything with a battery in it. So he was having, just pulling stuff off of the counter, found out later that one of the cats was actually helping him.
Wait, wait, the cat was, how was the cat helping him?
He was swiping stuff off the counter.
