⚠️ 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,
