Florida State Fire Marshal PSA.....Secure EVs Away From Hurricane Idalia Storm Surge Threat!

If you don't:

I'd not want to have to depend on a EV to get me away from danger so I suspect many would be left behind in favor of a ICE vehicle.

LOL....Better leave it in a mall parking lot.

There's a shitload of lithium in those batteries. All it takes is for one to be damages and gotten wet, then you have a major fire. I use the smaller 16340 and 18650 rechargeable Li-Ion batteries in several flashlights and weapon lights and I won't charge them when I'm not home. They get stored in an air-tight metal container.
