Lithium-ion batteries that aren’t UL-certified can be fire hazards, Fire Chief Crispen said. “People buy [them] off market and then end up in their units, and sometimes people overload their circuit with several of them plugged into one,” he said. www.tlvoice.org/fire-prevent...

“We found that a lot of our fires in 2025 were caused by two things. "One was hoarding, and the other was lithium-ion batteries stored in people’s units,” Fire Chief Crispen said. www.tlvoice.org/fire-prevent...

A sobering (“RESET”) center opens in April, and new legislation would require lithium-ion batteries sold in SF to meet higher safety standards. It's looking like a lithium-ion battery explosion caused the fire that displaced 68 TL residents in December. www.tlvoice.org/fire-prevent...
