Anker recalls over a million power banks due to fire and burn hazards
Anker has recalled its PowerCore 10000 power bank (model A1263) due to the risk of fire and burns.
Anker has recalled its PowerCore 10000 power bank (model A1263) due to an issue with the lithium battery that can cause it to "overheat, posing fire and burn hazards to consumers," the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (USCPSC) wrote.
