Fact Sheet - Lithium-Ion Battery Charging
Lithium-ion batteries in small portable devices such as phones, laptops power tools, and larger e-bikes, e-scooters and cars contain a large amount of energy in a relatively small space. When lithium-ion batteries fail, the energy is rapidly released which can create explosions, highly toxic fumes and secondary ignitions even after the flames have been extinguished.
This one-page Lithium-Ion Battery Charging Fact Sheet includes safety guidance on battery charging for general use in the workplace. It addresses the risks associated with lithium-ion batteries and offers practical steps to ensure a safe charging environment.
