A new crash recently in Alabama, but a reminder to something that we all know. Burning Teslas are far more difficult to extinguish than any other car.

    Edit: someone just educated me. Lithium battery fires are self oxidizing. I was not aware of that. My bad!

    How is it the best we have? Deprive the fire of oxygen and it’ll go out. Halon does a fine job of sucking the air right out of the fire.
