Lithium-Ion Battery Awareness

Lithium-ion batteries are everywhere and power many items that you use daily. Small electronics, like cell phones and power tools, and bigger items, like fully-electric or hybrid vehicles, can be powered by lithium-ion batteries. These batteries are common and rapidly increasing in use because they offer more power in a smaller package, have a longer life span and have less of an environmental impact. The lithium battery safety training teaches you to use these batteries while preventing fire and explosion hazards.
