With more people riding electric scooters, bikes and boards, safe storage and charging is more important than ever — especially in schools, workplaces, and public buildings where multiple devices may be in use. 🏫🏢
Here’s some helpful tips on how to stay safe when charging and storing these devices.
✅ Store your devices in a cool, dry, ventilated spot (away from flammables and kids’ play areas).
✅ Don’t stack devices—give them space to breathe.
✅ Use the right charger for your device (look for the RCM mark).
✅ Never charge overnight or when the building is empty.
✅ Check for damage—if it’s not right, don’t charge it.
✅ Add smoke alarms and keep exits clear.
