DON'T USE MOBILES, LAPTOP WHILE ITS CHARGING






DON'T USE MOBILES, LAPTOP WHILE ITS CHARGING




A couple lost their 25 year old son in a fire at home on last month . The son who had graduated with MBA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison two weeks earlier had come home for a while. He had lunch with his dad at home and decided to go back to clean up his hostel room. His father told him to wait, to meet his mother, before he went back for a few days. He decided to take a nap while waiting for his mom to come back home from work. Some time later their neighbors called 911 when they saw black smoke coming out of the house.


Unfortunately, the 25 years old died in the three year old house. It took several days of investigation to find out the cause of the fire. It was determined that the fire was caused by the laptop resting on the bed. When the laptop was on the bed cooling fan did not get the air to cool the computer and that is what caused the fire. He did not even wake up to get out of the bed because he died of breathing in carbon monoxide.


The reason I am writing this to all of you is that I have seen many of us using the laptop while in bed. Let us all decide and make it a practice not to do that. The risk is real. Let us make it a rule not to use the laptop on bed with blankets and pillows around. Please educate as many people as you can









A few days ago, a person was recharging his cell phone at home.Just at that time a call came and he answered it with the instrument still connected to the outlet.After a few seconds electricity flowed into the cell phone unrestrained and the young man was thrown to the ground with a heavy thud.

His parents rushed to the room only to find him unconscious, with a weak heartbeat and burnt fingers.He was rushed to the nearby hospital, but was pronounced dead on arrival.Cell phones are a very useful modern invention.However, we must be aware that it can also be an instrument of death.

Never use the cell phone while it is hooked to the electrical outlet!
