Store any batteries and electronics in a dry, cool area away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Use sealed, labeled containers for battery packs and ensure terminals are protected from short circuits. Remove batteries if the device will be idle for long periods, following manufacturer guidance for safe storage. Keep devices turned off and disconnect from any power supply when not in use.
Organize cords and adapters with cable ties and label each item. Use anti-tick or anti-slip mats to prevent devices from shifting and potentially getting damaged. Regularly inspect batteries for signs of swelling, leaks, or corrosion; replace as needed and dispose of hazardous materials according to local regulations. Maintain a separate, clean workstation for charging to reduce exposure to humidity and dust. By separating electronics from fabrics and finishes, you reduce risk of chemical interactions that could degrade materials.
