Tesla Battery Pack fire - South of Rockhampton
Sep 28^th, 2023 at 12:53pm

A Tesla battery fire at one of Queensland’s first large-scale battery storage sites could burn for days, as authorities warn nearby residents to stay indoors to avoid hazardous fumes.

Emergency services were called at Bouldercombe, south of Rockhampton, about 7.45pm on Tuesday.

The fire was contained, but crews were advised by Tesla to allow the fire to burn out, prompting a warning to local residents to stay indoors to avoid the hazardous smoke.

The battery, nicknamed ‘Big Bessie’, is one of 40 lithium Megapack 2.0 units supplied by Tesla on a site privately owned by renewable energy and storage developer Genex. Genex said in a statement that no one was on site at the time of the incident.

What part of "as authorities warn nearby residents to stay indoors to avoid hazardous fumes" didn't you understand? Lithium fires are highly toxic, very light. I would go to somewhere much safer until the fire is out.

And don't use your air-conditioning. Sounds not so good in Rocky.

is there a point?Have you been living under a rock all your life? Fumes and smoke in general are generally accepted as being bad for you. This is not new. Just a few weeks ago Sydneysiders were warned to stay indoors because of smoke haze covering the city from back burning. Did you cry then too? Blame the trees or the grass?

Smoke from combustible material like wood or grass is unpleasant and is dangerous in large amounts, however the gases released from inflammable metals are much worse, with the Li battery near the top of the list.

Just a heads up

The Frodo Smith tosspot is online under the influence of the latest drugs he’s just scored out of long term unemployed boredom. Ignore/post over the unhinged nutter who clearly has no knowledge about Tesla Battery Pack fire danger.

In fact ... the Dumbarse Dhead is in here just to smear his unhinged spam and troll in another Mod’s Sub Forum.

Dear Lisa,
