  1. No one hurt

    Made Apr 5, 2012, sent to the company Apr 12, 2012, published by CPSC Apr 26, 2012

    The product, in the report: Lithium Ion Battery for Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop personal computer. Model #: PN111319 ASIN: B000GE7E6S Li-ion battery 11.10v 7200mAh

    I purchased a replacement laptop battery for my Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop in July, 2010. I bought the battery from Amazon.com. On April 2 at approximately 9:30pm CST the laptop began to smoke, pop and sizzle. The laptop was idle at the time of the incident and no person was in close proximity to the laptop when it caught fire. I unplugged the laptop, grabbed it by the screen and threw it onto my outdoor wood deck to ensure the house would not fill with more smoke or catch fire. The battery/laptop popped again and a flame appeared. I extinguished the fire with table salt as I was afraid water might have caused an explosion. A second explosion happened and this was also extinguished. I proceeded to throw the laptop to the middle of my grass yard away from my residence. A third explosion occurred at this time and I took dirt and a shovel to cover the laptop and ensure the fire was completely extinguished.
