TORONTO, Jan. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Full Circle Lithium Corp. ("FCL" or the "Company") (TSXV: FCLI) (OTCQB: FCLIF) (FSE: K0Q), a leading US-based lithium-ion battery fire extinguishing products manufacturer, is pleased to announce the launch of six new lithium-ion fire extinguishers sizes, including four retail-focused models (20 ounces, 1 litre, 2 litre and 3 litre) and two industrial-size units (30 litre and 50 litre), designed to address the growing risks associated with lithium-ion battery use across residential, recreational, and industrial environments. All new products will use FCL-X™, a proprietary, non-hazardous, non-toxic, water-based fire-extinguishing agent, and will initially be launched in North American markets.
Lithium-ion batteries continue to power everyday life. The risk of thermal runaway, leading to battery-related explosions and fires, has increased across home electronics, power tools, e-mobility devices, and recreational equipment. FCL's new extinguisher lineup was engineered specifically to address these unique hazards. The retail-focused models are ideal for homeowners and consumer applications, providing targeted protection for electronics, laptops, e-bikes, e-scooters, power tools, and other battery-powered devices commonly found in the home. These compact units are designed for easy placement in garages, living spaces, workshops, and charging areas. The new extinguishers also address the rapidly expanding use of lithium-ion batteries in recreational applications, including golf, boating, and powersports. As most golf carts transition to electric power and lithium-ion batteries become standard on boats and recreational vehicles, dedicated fire protection is increasingly critical. The new models offer peace of mind for golf courses, marinas, boat owners, and powersports enthusiasts alike. For higher-risk and commercial environments, the two industrial-size extinguishers deliver greater agent capacity and performance, making them well-suited for warehouses, service facilities, charging stations, and industrial operations that manage large quantities of lithium-ion batteries. A 100-litre format will also be available over the next few months. "Lithium-ion batteries are everywhere, and the fire risks they present are fundamentally different from traditional fires," said Chad Carver, VP of Sales and Operations, at the Company. "These new extinguishers were developed to help protect people, property, and investments, whether that's a family home, a golf cart fleet, a boat at the marina, or an industrial facility." All six extinguisher sizes are engineered to meet applicable safety and performance standards and are available immediately through FCL's authorized distribution network. They will soon be listed on FCL's website as well. FCL is working with a number of North American retailers who are very interested in making these specialty extinguishers available to their customers, as well as with a growing list of key commercial and industrial players exposed to lithium-ion battery fire risks. More information on these potentially transformative opportunities will be provided as they materialize over the next several months. About Full Circle Lithium Corp.
