to overheating, sparks, or even fire.
There are also everyday risks. Children may pull on cords, pets might chew them, or someone might yank the charger out improperly, adding strain and damage.
Each small action contributes to wear, making the charger less safe over time.
The solution is simple: unplug chargers when not in use, replace damaged ones, and keep outlets organized.
A quick habit can reduce risk and help keep your home safer.
