Anker is recalling another five power banks over fire risks


Anker is having a recall-filled June.

Anker has issued its second product recall so far this month, warning customers that five additional power bank models should stop being used “immediately due to the risk of overheating, melting, smoke, or fire.” The concerns mirror those that Anker mentioned in its earlier recall of model A1263 PowerCore 10000 power banks sold in the US, with the company announcing that it has identified a “potential issue” with lithium-ion batteries provided by one of its suppliers.
