The product, in the report: Replacement lithium ion battery for HP Chromebook
I purchased the PowerSmart 2200mAh lithium ion battery from Amazon on 12/31/2016 for my HP Chromebook as a replacement battery. On 3/30/2017 the battery exploded and caught fire while I was using my computer. I was able to extinguish the fire by smothering it with a blanket. I wanted to report this occurrence in case it happened to others. Thank you, [REDACTED]
