Charge safely, sleep soundly campaign
Battery fires are on the rise
Lithium-ion battery fires are on the rise, especially in e-bikes and e-scooters. Our Charge Safely, Sleep Soundly campaign is here to raise awareness and promote safer charging, storage, and disposal practices.
In 2023, over 300 fires across the UK were linked to these batteries. In 2024, our investigations in Devon and Somerset found multiple injuries - likely just a fraction of the true impact.
This campaign aims to encourage safe charging and storage, especially among high-risk groups, increase awareness of lithium-ion battery fire risks, and reduce fires and injuries caused by lithium-ion batteries.
