AUSTIN (KXAN) – Let this be a lesson in why you should be careful using third party accessories for your electronics.

A woman using an older model Dell XPS laptop at the West Anderson Lane Link Coworking space on Monday morning had a little scare when the computer exploded, causing others in the space to run to her aid.

In the top-right corner of the video, as a man walks into the work-space, you can see the woman push her chair out as smoke begins to pour from the desk in front of her. Watch the video again and you will notice the flames in the reflection of the window next to the door. Link Coworking’s owner Liz Elam, and another person using the space head to the scene with a fire extinguisher and toss the smoking remains out the door as others start huddling to see what happened.

According to a spokesperson for Link Coworking, the woman had been inside working for nearly two hours when her laptop started buzzing right before the explosion. Her company had provided the Dell and had a new one ordered due to the other’s age.

No one was hurt in the incident.

A Dell representative said the battery being used was an aftermarket, third party model and not one of theirs.

It’s not known the precise model of Dell XPS in the video, but, in 2006, Dell recalled more than four million batteries due to the possibility of short circuiting and catching on fire. The XPS models recalled were XPS, XPS Gen2, XPS M170 and XPS M1710.
