Lithium-Ion Batteries: How to Charge and Where to Store: Electrical Safety Foundation
E-bikes and scooters, powered by lithium-ion batteries, enhance our lives, but with such convenience comes responsibility. When it’s time to charge, choose a flat, dry area away from children, sunlight — and most importantly, not near entrances where a fire could block an escape route. Always use a manufacturer-approved charger and avoid adapters when charging. Be aware of the device when charging. Never leave them charging unattended, especially overnight. Safety is smart. Prevention is power. Click here for more information on this important safety topic from the Electrical Safety Foundation, including a youtube video on lithium-ion batteries.
