The warning comes after other fire services raised the alarm about social media 'life hack' videos encouraging people to use improvised heating devices to save money amid the UK's cost-of-living crisis
Fire chiefs warned people not to make the devices, which have become popularised in"life hack" videos on social media sites, including TikTok., but nobody was injured.Derbyshire Fire and Rescue station manager Barclay Masterson, said:"Although these hacks may look like a good way to save money on heating bills, they are very dangerous and we would urge people not to follow the videos posted online.
"On this occasion, the heat released from the base of the tea lights was enough to weaken the terracotta plates they were placed on, causing the homemade device to collapse and the melted wax to ignite. A spokesperson for Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service added:"Hacks like this claim to save you money but instead you risk your life."
