A lot of apartments have storage units or lockers, having power available in them would make charging devices like this much safer.
It would also mean more of those devices close together in the same spot when one battery decides to go poof! Landlord's easiest take (not saying I agree) will be to ban them. Imagine trying to claim insurance over a battery explosion...
Some hardware stores already ban staff from commuting on an e-scooter because of the chemicals they store in hardware stores.
