Oakland Climate & Tablet Care
Mild, wet winters and warm, dry summers along the coast. Inland valleys get much hotter. Wildfire risk is a growing year-round concern.
Winter concerns
- • Mild, wet winters bring moisture that can seep into charging ports and speaker grilles

Summer concerns
- • Wildfire smoke clogs laptop cooling fans and deposits residue on circuit boards
- • Dry heat pushes batteries past safe operating temperatures, reducing their lifespan

Products sold for $50-$99.99 must have parts available for 3 years; products $100+ for 7 years. The law covers a huge consumer market -- California alone represents about 15% of the US economy.
