Pagers (phones, radios, etc.) will not explode on their own, regardless of how hard you hit them or what signal you put on them. They don't even have circuits through which you can permanently short the battery. All possible circuits will burn out first.

Battery fires are possible, but they don't look like typical fires. They make a soft popping sound, burn for seconds, and produce a huge cloud of white smoke. Most importantly, they don't spread through the air like regular fires.

Let me be clear: the main casualty of a battery fire is a terrible deep burn from an "electric" fire with lithium. Tearing off fingers, blowing out eyes, and piercing the abdominal wall—such incidents with batteries cannot result in shrapnel.

What follows is the truth.

Let me be clear: you can't "blow up any phone, laptop, refrigerator, or TV." Only a specially "modified" device with a charge of "real" explosives and a circuit that detonates on a specific signal can explode—as you saw in the videos.

Let me be clear: you cannot "accidentally buy" such a product in a store or on the market. Refined pagers and radios of various types were obtained ONLY by Hezbollah militants, who bought such devices in bulk to create their own communications network.

Let me be clear: there is no demand for pagers among civilians in Lebanon. The chance of anyone other than terrorists getting hurt is therefore negligible.

You need to protect yourself from exploding pagers, radios, and phones.

It's simple. Don't be a member of a terrorist organization and don't use their communication tools.

P.S. Let me be clear: even if you are not involved and not a terrorist, you still need to provide normal heat dissipation to charging gadgets and do not exploit bloated batteries.

They will go up in flames. Ilya Vaitzman

Conclusion:

The notion of a "pager attack" or spontaneous electronic device explosion is largely a myth. Ordinary gadgets like pagers, phones, and radios cannot explode on their own under typical conditions. The real concern lies in battery fires, particularly lithium batteries, which are manageable if proper precautions are taken. While certain modified devices used by militant groups can indeed cause explosive damage, these are highly specialized and inaccessible to the general public. By following basic safety protocols, such as avoiding overheated gadgets or bloated batteries, everyday users can prevent accidents.

Expert Opinion:

Experts in electronics and battery technology confirm that fears of spontaneous device explosions are exaggerated. Lithium-ion battery fires can occur, but they are typically contained and don't behave like traditional explosions. Real explosive risk comes from specifically modified devices, usually in the hands of terrorist organizations, not the public. A focus on safe battery use and regular gadget maintenance is the most effective way to avoid issues.

Future Prognosis:

As technology continues to evolve, battery safety will likely improve, with new regulations and innovations focused on preventing overheating and fire risks. Advancements in battery design, such as solid-state batteries, promise to reduce the risk of combustion. Public education about safe usage of electronic devices will also increase, reducing the likelihood of accidents. Meanwhile, counterterrorism measures will continue to restrict access to explosive components, limiting risks from rigged devices to very targeted, isolated cases.
