It’s no secret that lithium-ion batteries are great for power tools. However, not all lithium-ion batteries are the same. The Power Tool Institute (PTI) recommends using only lithium-ion batteries made by the tool’s manufacturer for the specific tool. Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) products are listed with an independent certification lab to confirm compliance with internationally accepted safety standards. A third-party battery added to the tool system negates this effort. More so, knock-off batteries can result in poor performance, shorter life, damage to the tool/charger, or, worse, a battery bursting that may cause a fire or explosion. For more information, contact PTI at 216-241-7333 or www.TakeChargeOfYourBattery.com.

Most of Werner’s Fall Protection Harnesses, including the ProForm, Blue Armor and LITEFIT lines, specifically address post-fall stress. These harnesses feature patented Relief Handles located on the back leg straps allowing users to shift their weight into a “Chair in the Air” position, resembling a typical seated pose. This position alleviates potential suspension trauma by allowing the user to adjust the harness in a post-fall situation to reach a safe and seated position, and instantly relieving pressure in the groin area while permitting better blood flow.
