Repost from fdnyfirediary • 1/27/2025: Hazmat 1 responding to the scene of a Lithium Ion battery that had reignited hours after the initial fire took place per Fire Marshall’s request. 40-50 batteries filled these barrels. At first they were just smoking through the vent holes at the top, but eventually flames began rapid shooting out. The smell was absolutely horrible. #FDNY #firedepartment #fire #hazmat #lithium #lithiumbattery #firedept #firemarshal #firefighter #firefighters #nyc #midtown #thebravest #chiefmiller
