Simple habits for a safer home
The good news is that just a few simple habits are enough to eliminate these risks:
-
Always unplug your chargers after use.
-
Check their condition regularly: damaged cable, bent connector, or a casing that gets hot? Replace it immediately.
-
Keep chargers out of reach of children and pets.
-
Use power strips with a switch, which allow you to cut off power to several devices at once with a single click.
A small habit that makes a big difference
We know our lives are already busy, and sometimes one extra step can feel unnecessary. But here, all it takes is a simple action—pulling the plug—to avoid a whole range of small (and big) inconveniences.
So next time you unplug your phone, go one step further: unplug the charger too. Your home, your energy bill, and even your charger itself will thank you.
Sometimes, it’s the simplest habits that offer the best protection.
