Li-Fire Launches Free Replacement Program for E-Bike Covers as E-Bike Battery Fires Escalate Worldwide

In time for the holiday season, Li-Fire is offering customers who purchase an E-bike Lithium Fire Cover a free replacement if their cover is ever used in a lithium-ion battery fire.

PALM BEACH, Fla., Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Li-Fire, one of the leading lithium battery fire suppression solution companies on the market, is responding to the surge in e-bike lithium battery fires around the world by launching their free e-bike cover replacement program. 

New York City has seen a 68% increase in lithium battery fires caused by e-bikes, compared to the same period in 2025. Additionally, multiple Canadian municipalities have reported an upward trend in e-bike battery incidents throughout 2026. Despite the boom in lithium battery fires, e-bikes will still be on holiday wish lists for many this year, posing threats to homes, apartments, and businesses around the world.

Because of the uptick in these lithium battery fires, Li-Fire is adding extra protection for customers who purchase an E-bike Lithium Fire Cover with its new free replacement program. Specifically, the program:

• Replaces a Li-Fire E-bike Lithium Fire Cover that was used in a lithium battery fire incident. Terms and conditions apply.
• Helps owners to safely store and charge their e-bikes, helping to reduce the damage from unexpected lithium-battery fires.
• Makes it easier to enjoy modern, lithium-powered e-bikes anytime, anywhere, with added peace of mind.

"This holiday season, our hope is that everyone who purchases an e-bike will also purchase or consider an appropriate lithium battery fire safety solution," said Joanne Sanders, Corporate Communications, Li-Fire Suppression Solutions. "We want to see the global e-bike fire numbers decline, but to get there, e-bike owners need to understand the risks that come with these vehicles and prepare accordingly. Innovative solutions and owner readiness are key to decreasing the number of global e-bike-related lithium battery fires," she added.

Trusted by the Miami-Dade Fire Department and notable organizations such as DHL, Wayfair, Toyota, and more, Li-Fire is committed to helping reduce lithium battery fires and protecting families, businesses, and communities threatened by these fire risks.
