Technology

I agree. We already moved the goalposts a few comment further up the thread... (And I meant plugged-in chargers that have nothing attached with my bad phrasing with "unplugged") I just wanted to tell that some of the ways to mitigate for the risk aren't very straightforward. What seems to do a lot is get smoke detectors, and a fire extingusher, so you don't spend the deciding 2 minutes in the bathroom, filling up a bucket. And some risk is always there, we almost all own quite an amount of electronic devices and batteries. (And then what people said here, don't use dubious products with less failsafes in their design, and entirely unplugged things (without a battery) are safe and will not cause a fire.)
