I get it. Those two-wheeled personal scooters that are popularly known as hoverboards look like a heck of a lot of fun, and they're as close as most people will ever get to having a real hoverboard. It's no wonder consumers want to keep them despite a spate of reports of fires related to defective batteries.

If you're conceed about your hoverboard, but don't want to trash it, you might look into a Hovervault, a fire-resistant hoverboard bag built to contain a fire should it happen. The bag is made from a woven fiberglass composite. It's essentially a larger version of existing bags made to transport lithium batteries for drones.

Hovervault is clear that the bag won't stop hoverboards from combusting like a Spinal Tap drummer. "The Hovervault will help prevent further damage caused by a battery fire, not prevent a fire from happening," the company notes in a FAQ.

The bag can be used while the hoverboard is charging or being stored or transported. Even with a Hovervault, you still won't be allowed to take your hoverboard on a plane.
