Use phones and technology safely when a storm comes

During storm season, smartphones, laptops, televisions or IoT devices can be dangerous if not used properly. People need to take care to stay safe and stay connected.

During a storm, smartphones become an important means of communication, but you need to save battery and prepare a large capacity backup charger.

Users should pre-download weather alerts, offline maps, and low-data messaging tools.

In particular, limit the use of poor quality charging accessories because they can easily cause fire or explosion when the power is unstable.

Laptops and computers should have their data backed up to the cloud or an external hard drive before the storm hits.

It is best to unplug all power sources and network cables to avoid damage caused by lightning or sudden voltage surges.

If you must work, use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to safely shut down the machine in the event of a power outage.

Smart home appliances like refrigerators, TVs, or IoT speakers should only maintain the power they need.

People should use surge protectors and unplug unnecessary devices to ensure safety during storms.
