⚠️ Fire Hazard Alert: Don’t Store These Batteries Inside
May 26, 2025 11:50 am
Hey ,
Quick but important PSA:
One of our clients recently had a major house fire—caused by a rechargeable battery (like the ones used in EGO tools) that was stored indoors. Thankfully no one was hurt, but the damage was extensive and life-disrupting.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Don’t store rechargeable batteries in your house
- Keep them in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area—garage or shed is best
- Unplug them once they’re fully charged
- Check them regularly for swelling or damage
These batteries are powerful—but they can be dangerous if not stored properly.
Take a minute today to check where yours are.
Stay safe,
