Temperatures inside the car in full sun can reach 60 or even 70 degrees Celsius. These are extreme conditions at which some items can explode, are destroyed or a health threat.
A seemingly innocent lighter can turn into a dangerous load on a hot day. All through Gas accumulated in itwhich expands at a high temperature and can lead to an explosion. Melting plastic, torn valve and spark. It is enough for a fire to take place. The lighters left on the dashboard, under the glass or even in the clipboard are not safe. In many cases, there has already been serious damage to the interior of the vehicle by this inconspicuous object.

Another daily gadget that may surprise us. And literally with a bang. Perfumes, deodorants and other cosmetics in aerosol contain alcohol and high pressure gases. At a temperature exceeding 50 degrees Celsius, these cans begin to expand. In extreme cases, they break with a loud shot, leaving a mess, damage and even injuries. And yet many people carry perfumes in the storage space “just in case”. In the summer it is a very bad idea.
This may be a surprise: sunglasses, especially those with strong lenses, can act like a light -focusing lens. Left on the dashboard or at the glass can concentrate the sun’s rays at one point.

Therefore, after riding, it is worth putting the glasses to the case and hold them away from the sun.

Smartphones, powerbanks, tablets. We often leave them in the car when we jump “only for a moment”. But The heat and lithium-ion batteries are a very bad connection. High temperature accelerates the degradation of cells, can lead to overheating, and in the worst case to self -ignition. In addition, overheated equipment loses performance and ages faster. If you care about efficient electronics, take it with you, even on a short output.
This may surprise you the most: an ordinary bottle of water, especially open and plastic, can be dangerous. High temperature makes it Bacteria multiply insideand plastic itself begins to release toxic chemicals, such as BPA (Bisphenol A). Their regular consumption can lead to serious health problems. If you need water in the car, put on unopened glass bottles or thermoses. And certainly do not leave the open “Petka” for a few days in a hot car.
