Frequently Asked Questions

Safety FAQs

Common questions about safety resources and how they can help you choose and use your device.

Is it safe to leave a cart battery charging overnight?

It's not recommended. Most batteries reach a full charge in under two hours, and leaving any lithium battery on the charger for many hours beyond that adds unnecessary heat and wear. Charge it, unplug it, and store it.

What does a swollen or puffy battery mean?

A battery that looks swollen, feels unusually hot, or has a damaged wrap has likely failed internally and should be taken out of use right away. Don't puncture it or attempt to charge it again; dispose of it at a battery recycling location.

How should I handle a loose 18650 battery?

Keep it in a case when it's not in the device, away from loose keys, coins, or anything metal that could short the contacts. A torn wrap on a loose battery is a reason to stop using it, not a reason to tape it and move on.

Where should I store my device and batteries when not in use?

Somewhere cool, dry, and out of direct sunlight, with batteries stored separately from the heating chamber. Avoid leaving anything lithium battery powered in a hot car.

Do I need to verify my age to buy from Exxus?

Yes. Every order requires confirming you're 21 or older, verified at checkout, in line with applicable state and local requirements.
