Tips to Keep You Battery Safe
Lithium-ion batteries power many devices we use and rely on daily. However, many people don't realize that lithium-ion batteries can become unstable if damaged, used improperly, are overcharged or exposed to extreme temperatures. This instability can lead to overheating, sparking and even explosions.
Battery fires can leave you with less than one minute to escape your home, so it's important to know how to prevent them from starting in the first place.
