#FirePreventionWeek Day 6: On a flight? Keep it in sight. Charge where you can see it, never in the overhead bin, and don't charge vapes on a plane.

Fire Prevention Week, Day 5: Feels hot? Stop using it. The same goes for swelling, leaking, odd smells, or popping/hissing. Smoke or fire? Get out, close the door, call 911.

#FirePreventionWeek Day 4: For tools and rides, charge outside. E-bikes, scooters, and power tools have larger batteries that store more energy. Charge outside when possible and never block an exit.

#FirePreventionWeek Day 3: Fully charged? Time to unplug. Leaving devices plugged in after 100% adds heat and stress to the battery.

#FirePreventionWeek Day 2: Soft surfaces? Hard pass. Beds, couches, and pillows trap heat. Charge devices on a hard, flat surface like a desk or table.

It's #FirePreventionWeek! Theme: Safe Charging Is a Superpower. Day 1: Cheap charger? Don't chance it. Use the charger that came with your device or a manufacturer-approved one, and look for a UL, ETL, or CSA mark.

Congrats to BC Marc Aloan on graduating from the SC Fire Officer program at the 82nd Fire Leadership SC Conference.
The SCCFO program, offered through the SC State Association of Fire Chiefs, prepares officers for executive leadership in the fire service.
Well done, Chief.

Today, we remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001, including 343 firefighters who gave their lives that day. Their sacrifice still shapes every firefighter who serves today. We will never forget. 🇺🇸
