Since it has been hypothesized that a charging cord can be a source of ignition,
it should be possible to come up with a way, using the Scientific Method, to either confirm or refute the hypothesis.
Does anyone have documented evidence of a charging cord actually causing a fire? What conditions are necessary in order for this to happen?
