Humane recalls the AI Pin’s charging case due to overheating concerns

Around 10,500 units affected — another sign of slow sales.

According to the CPSC recall page, the lithium polymer battery in the Charge Case Accessory can potentially overheat and present a fire hazard. Still, the situation is yet another blemish for Humane’s first product, which got off to a terrible start after a wave of damning reviews, slow sales, and plentiful returns. If opting for the refund, those who bought it standalone will receive $149, and anyone who got a charge case as part of the AI Pin “complete package” will get $129.
