Electric longboard maker Boosted Boards are urging customers to cease use of their newest board, not charge it and keep it away from flammable objects. This is due to the company investigating two incidents of overheating batteries. Lithium-ion batteries are light and compact but can potentially be volatile. This sometimes leads to trouble for manufacturers like Samsung's Galaxy Note 7. However, Boosted Boards appears to be ahead of the situation by informing their customers sooner rather than later.
