Charge Devices Safely
Fire Prevention Week 2025 - Tip #3

Issued: October 8, 2025

Today’s Tip:

Anything with a lithium-ion battery – phones, laptops, e-bikes, power tools – can become a fire hazard if it’s not charged safely.  Always use the charger that comes with the device or one approved by the manufacturer.  If the cord only works when you bend it just right, it’s time to replace it.  Click here to learn more!
