It seems the Sony battery debacle is not over. Toshiba have announced another recall. While the initial announcement appears to apply to the US only, it seems unlikely it won't be extended internationally. This follows a number of previous recalls.
I've taken to making sure things like laptops, mobile phones and power tools are left recharging while unattended and definitely making sure they are unplugged overnight.
Given it's only a tiny proportion of batteries with these problems, we shouldn't over-react. But reducing the risk of trouble is a good idea.
