Texas-based Hot-Stop 'L' fire containment kit master distributor Baker Aviation now offers a new vessel developed for the latest mobile phone technology. The 14” x 10” fire containment solution is deemed fireproof, as defined by the US Code of Federal Regulations 14 CFR 1.1, meeting the same strict testing criteria that all the Hot-Stop 'L' products achieve.

CEO Ray Goyco Jr says: “This is our next generation phone containment unit as we continue to expand our product line to support our customers and improve safety. We realised many of our customers carry larger, more powerful waterproof phones with cases. Therefore, we made this new bag larger and tested it to be fireproof with zero tolerance for toxic smoke and gasses associated with these fires. As the pioneers in this market, we ensure our product is fully capable of containing the latest waterproof phone technology without the need for water.”

The new product is burn-certified and designed to safely contain popular smart phones with their oversized cases and eliminate the risk of battery related fires and toxic smoke on board aircraft. Its light-weight design is easy to store on any aircraft and does not require the use of aqueous liquids, although the vessel allows the use of water if operators choose to follow SAFO guidance. Customers have the option of purchasing the phone unit with electromagnetic frequency shielding, and 14” burn-certified safety gloves may also be purchased.
