During use, users should be familiar with safety
precautions

short circuit, extrusion, puncture, overheating and
high current discharge, etc.). In the charging and
operation process, the power battery system may
develop abnormalities: the temperature of
battery system or parts rises sharply; or abnormal
smell or smoke from the battery system.

high-pressure water gun for fire-fighting at a
