About the Holiday

Celebrated annually with the start of Daylight Savings Time, Check Your Batteries Day serves as a reminder to check and replace (if needed) batteries that are important in time of emergency. Check devices such as your smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, flashlights, HVAC thermostat, and portable radios. Keep enough batteries on hand so when they do need to be replaced, you'll have them available for when you need them most. You may also consider buying some items that don't need batteries like a hand-cranked flashlight or hand-cranked emergency radio.
