While Lithium batteries can be incredible for their life and power in your tools, the utmost care must be exercised while charging and caring for these batteries. Always follow manufacturers instructions!
"If (lithium ion batteries) get damaged, if they start to swell, or the cases crack, you should replace them." — @StrathconaFire #shpk #strathco sherwoodparknews.com/news/lo…

Busy evening for @StrathconaFire. Around 8:30 p.m., there was a house fire on Bonneville Court, a road behind the Shpk Arena. Now they're on the scene of another residential fire in East Whitecroft, just south of Wye Road. #shpk #strathco
