Re: PO has me PO'd
Close call, could have burnt my workshop and house down
My wife works me up from my nap saying she smelled smoke
Opened the basement door and it was black with smoke
Ran thru the basement into my workshop and saw fire, ran past 2 fire extinguishers on my way, the actual fire was contained on a carpet that was laying on the floor right under the charger, carpet was made of woven plastic, and you know what burning plastic smells like, still in my nostrils
Oh crap
I was in the shop a couple hours ago and the last thing I do is charge my head lamp, so its ready for the next day, done it hundreds of times
So far damage is contained to the tire, which was on fire, harness inside engine bay, and paint
My wife and I laid in our own bed last night thanking God.
Could have been so much worse
We survived a " LIFE CHANGING MOMENT"
