[CQ-Contest] Exploding Noise Cancelling Headphones

[Steve Lott]

*"The brand of headphones was not released.*
In a comment posted on its Facebook, the ATSB suggested lithium-ion
batteries, which have a history of catching fire, were behind the
explosion."   quote is from the article referenced in the original post
from Donovan

below is my comments.....

Seems that they had an internal battery which was lithium-ion
Not sure I am ready to wear anything that contains a Lithium-ion battery
pack

cheers!
