Frequently Asked Questions

Safety FAQs

Common questions about safety resources and how they can help you choose and use your device.

Should I only use the charger and cable that came with my device?

Yes, using a different or unmatched charger can stress the battery and create a safety risk. Stick with the original cable or one recommended by the manufacturer.
What should I do if a battery feels swollen or unusually hot?

Stop using it immediately, avoid puncturing or bending it, and dispose of it according to local battery disposal guidelines rather than continuing to use or charge it.
What is the safe way to carry a spare 18650?

Always in a dedicated battery case, never loose in a pocket or bag where it can touch keys or coins and short out. Retire any cell with torn wrap or a dented top.
Where's the best way to store devices and batteries?

Keep them out of direct sun and away from heat, moisture, and anything metal. A drawer or a padded case works; a hot car does not.
Do I need to be a certain age to purchase from this site?

You must be 21 or older to buy from us, and age is confirmed at checkout before any order is accepted. Where you live may add its own rules on purchase and use.
