The recent fire at a local Golf Club—which sadly destroyed approximately 68 golf carts—serves as a poignant reminder of how quickly lithium battery incidents can impact a business and community space. Our thoughts go out to the team and members as they rebuild. ⛳🤝

From fleet golf carts and power tools to office laptops and emergency back-up packs, high-density lithium batteries are everywhere in commercial operations. When thermal runaway strikes, extreme heat, toxic gas release, and sudden re-ignition long after flames seem gone are real threats.

Protecting your commercial assets requires a holistic strategy:

1️⃣ PREVENT: Choose high-quality Uniross Lithium-ion batteries with built-in safety engineering.

2️⃣ DETECT: Install wireless Ajax FireProtect2 RB detectors for early heat, smoke, and CO alerts.

3️⃣ EXTINGUISH: Equip your facilities with Brigit® Fire GreenMist extinguishers, formulated with BerkiCold to chemically cool lithium battery fires and stop thermal runaway in its tracks.

There is nothing more precious than the quiet moments at home—kids laughing, playing video games, and just being kids. 💙

Recently in the Overstrand area, a family experienced a scary moment when a lithium battery unexpectedly exploded while children were playing video games on the computer. We are so deeply relieved to share that everyone is safe and unharmed.

If you look around your living room: smartphones, gaming controllers, cordless vacuums, smartwatches, tablet screens, and wireless earbuds all rely on lithium batteries. Because we use them every day, it's easy to forget that damaged or faulty cells can re-ignite without warning.

That’s why we recommend the Brigit® Fire GreenMist Lithium Extinguisher. Powered by BerkiCold premix, it gently cools the core of lithium fires without thermal shock and leaves zero harsh residue on your sensitive home electronics.
Keep your family sanctuary safe. Chat with our friendly team at Olitron today about smart, safe home protection. 🏡✨

Most security work happens long before there is an emergency.

It’s the patrol vehicle moving through your neighbourhood. The officer noticing something that doesn’t quite look right. The Control Centre keeping watch. The camera picking up movement. The team checking that everything is exactly as it should be.

Sometimes, the best outcome is that absolutely nothing happens.
Because good security isn’t only about responding when things go wrong. It’s about being present, staying alert and helping prevent them from going wrong in the first place.

Day or night, our team is out there looking out for the community we call home.
