USA - Safety Standard for Lithium-Ion Batteries Used in Micro mobility Products and Electrical Systems of Micro mobility Products Containing Such Batteries
Business description
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issues this notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) to address the unreasonable risk of death and injury associated with lithium-ion batteries used in micro mobility products due to hazards such as thermal runaway of lithium cells, which can lead to fires, explosions, gas releases, burns, overheating, and smoke inhalation.
The NPR proposes that electrical systems using lithium-ion batteries in micro mobility products comply with applicable voluntary standards, with modifications. Because some micro mobility products are children's products requiring third party testing, the NPR also proposes to add this rule to the list of rules that require such testing.
