Below is a recap of this week’s blog posts including details on eBay’s partnership with Phonecheck, a battery recycling facility that received Lithium Ion battery testbeds that will help the company test and grade batteries, how proper IT asset disposition can help you with data security, and tips for keeping your electronics cool during heat waves.

Battery Recycling Facility Receives Li-Ion Battery Testbeds
Lithium Ion batteries are among the most dangerous components in electronic recycling. Known to combust when damaged, LIBs have caused many fires in the industry and often result in a chain reaction, especially in battery recycling or other end-of-life facilities. Because of the chemical reaction that occurs, LIB fires are more difficult to extinguish, and are often a major concern when repairing used devices for remarketing purposes. However, a UK-based battery recycling facility just received equipment that will enable the company to test and grade batteries in order to determine whether to recycle or repurpose them.

Data security is one of the most important aspects of a business, and now that the world has made a digital, remote shift it’s becoming even more crucial. CEOs depend on data security for not only the safety of their employees’ personal information, but the safety of enterprise information as well. Data security helps maintain a business’s reputation as reliable, and ensures clients that their information is in capable hands. There’s more than one way for someone to access private data, and one method of preventing data theft is through proper IT asset disposition.

As we head into triple digit weather it’s important to remember that your electronics are not invincible, and are easily susceptible to heat damage, especially during the hottest part of the summer. Below are some tips for keeping your devices from overheating while you’re cooling off by the pool.
