High-tech turned to high hell for a teenage girl whose iPhone charger allegedly burst into flames while in her bed, leaving her with severe facial burns.
Amie Hall, 17, was nodding off early Thursday morning when she noticed a bright orange blaze radiating from her duvet.
“So 2 a.m. this morning I was lying down as you do on my phone. Plugged in my charger and it set alight,” wrote Hall — who lives with her parents in Birmingham, England — on Facebook.
“My bed cover/duvet set on fire and also caught my face. This isn’t even a cheap charger, it’s an Apple charger.”
According to Jam Press, Hall jumped out of bed, narrowly evading the flames. Despite her quick escape, she did suffer a nasty burn on her right cheek.
“I ran out of my room and shouted [for] my mum, and luckily, she managed to put out the fire without the need to call the fire brigade,” Hall said in a statement.
“The burn was very sore, but I know it could have been more serious. The flames just caught me as it burnt through my duvet.”
Hall is now advising others against charging their phones in bed overnight.
“Please don’t go to bed and leave your phone charging overnight,” the teen warned on Facebook, captioning grisly images of the fire’s damage to her face and bedding.
“If I was asleep, this could have been a lot worse and this could have set my whole family home up with all my family in,” she added.
“Please be aware that this can happen to anyone and could be a lot worse. It’s dangerous. Please share.”
It’s unclear whether Hall’s charging system — reportedly consisting of an Apple cord and non-brand wall adapter — or faulty wiring in her family’s home may have caused the blaze.
However, a spokeswoman for Apple released a statement in the wake of the incident, saying: “Apple takes customer safety very seriously, is in touch with the customer and looking into the matter.”
The company has also published tips on safe charging practices, noting that restoring a phone’s battery in poorly ventilated spaces or where moisture is present could create a fire hazard.

With the Likud and its allies falling short of the 61 seats necessary for a Knesset majority, some in the party are calling for the Likud to open coalition negotiations with the United Arab List (Ra’am) to secure their support for the formation of a new Netanyahu-led government.
But that plan has divided the Likud and sparked a fierce public debate between Likud lawmakers.
MK Shlomo Karhi, who is staunchly opposed to relying on the UAL’s support to form a government, on Wednesday blasted Minister Tzachi HaNegbi, after HaNegbi called to open talks with the UAL’s chief, MK Mansour Abbas.
“We are prepared to enter into negotiations with Mansour Abbas, even if he is in the Opposition,” HaNegbi told Channel 12 Wednesday morning. “Why shouldn’t it happen? Let him [Abbas] vote for [our government], we have no problem with that. He won’t be a part of our coalition or government.”
Karhi responded on Twitter, writing: “No way, absolutely not.”
When HaNegbi was later asked to respond to Karhi’s tweet, the minister mocked Karhi, saying, “Remind me who that is? I’ll Google his name later.”
Karhi fired back, saying: “In my opinion it is better to be looked up on Google as an unknown person, then to be looked up on Google and to be embarrassed.”
“As a person who lives on the Gaza frontier, I can say that HaNegbi has also been unaware of people living in the Gaza area, like when missiles were fired at us, and he said that it doesn’t matter so much to him, since it wasn’t Tel Aviv. Who knows if Tzachi HaNegbi didn’t stay in the Likud to work as a mole for Gideon Sa’ar, and now wants to form a government with a terrorist supporter.”
“What will happen when they launch missiles at us and we need Abbas’ permission to fight in Gaza? He’ll throw us in the garbage! He’s a person who does not belong in a right-wing government. I don’t understand this, it’s a total embarrassment.”
The current vote count shows the Likud and its potential allies on the Right winning 59 seats, including seven for the Yamina faction. The United Arab List is projected to win five seats, and has hinted it may be prepared to support a Likud-led government from outside of the coalition.
“We’re in no one’s pocket,” said MK Abbas. “We’re prepared to negotiate with anyone.”

Notice his priorities .... First $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ then maybe conversion issue... then maybe Shabbat!
United Torah Judaism chief MK Moshe Gafni has demanded that the budget for haredi yeshivas be equal to that of Religious Zionist yeshivas.
"We owe thanks to G-d," Gafni said at a Tuesday night post-elections event in Bnei Brak, referring to the results of Israel's elections.
Regarding what he would demand as part of coalition deals, Gafni said: "We will demand that the budget for haredi yeshivas be equal to the budget for Religious Zionist yeshivas. There will be no discrimination."
Regarding conversions to Judaism, he said: "They want that conversions will not be on condition of accepting the Commandments, as required by Jewish law. There will not be what happened previously - that we asked to regulate the Supreme Court's power, and it didn't happen."
"We will continue to fight for the general public. We want Israel to remain a Jewish and democratic state, that Shabbat (the Sabbath) should remain Shabbat, that its status should be preserved. We will not allow a coalition without these issues [being solved]."
Housing Minister Yakov Litzman, also of UTJ, promised: "We will work to form a right-wing government as soon as possible."
On Tuesday night, Gafni rejected a phone call from Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, since he felt that Netanyahu had preferred Religious Zionism's MK Bezalel Smotrich over himself."

Media reports on March 18 revealed that the United Arab Emirates has suspended its plans for an Abraham Accords summit in Abu Dhabi with Israel, the United States, and other Arab signatories to the historic peace agreements brokered by the Donald Trump administration.
Supposedly, the Emiratis are angry with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for using the UAE’s de facto leader Mohammed bin Zayed as a “prop in his election campaign.”
In fact, as the theme of “election interference” should make clear (the UAE doesn’t have elections), and as has been substantiated by Israeli reporting, the source of the upset isn’t in Abu Dhabi but in Washington.
In other words, the Biden administration is interfering in Israel’s upcoming election by strong-arming the Emiratis into publicly distancing themselves from Bibi.
Next week Israel will hold its fourth election in a little more than two years, so in effect Netanyahu has been campaigning for more than 24 months—including in August when he and MBZ signed the agreement. Should the Emiratis have shunned the deal since Netanyahu, like any Israeli prime minister, would invariably present his accomplishment to voters? What about sending an ambassador to Israel, as it did at the beginning of March? What about investing $10 billion, as MBZ told Netanyahu he would? So how does a photo op with the prime minister glad-handing the crown prince of Abu Dhabi on his home turf cross the line?
