The lithium-ion battery in the defective power banks can overheat and ignite, posing fire and burn hazards to consumers. CPSC has received 79 reports of the power banks exploding, igniting and swelling; one report of a serious fire resulting in $15 million in property damage.

The defective power banks were sold in black, blue, misty blue, purple and white. About 93,000 defective power banks were sold on https://Amazon.com from April 2022 through February 2025 for between $22 and $40.

The defective power banks were manufactured in China.

In the 1960s zinc alkaline batteries used a coating of mercury amalgam on the terminals to improve conductivity

Well, shouldn't Amazon notify me if I bought one of these?
I think Amazon should have to tell me personally about the dangerous product, they have the records of who bought them. I know I bought a battery pack from Amazon, I just don't remember which one it was now. I don't have it with me.

Oh no, mine got wet and I left it in my cousins house. Fire hazard 🫠 or the battery is melting....

I just checked our similar looking power bank model. Turns out it's not covered by this recall, but it is by another recall. Your work really helps us stay safe. Thank you for this! https://customerservice.costco.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/11106/~/ubio-labs-10%2C000mah-slim-portable-power-banks-recall

Mine looks identical but different “brand” of podoru. Slightly different model number KT-D003.

How likely it is the same internals?

If u know of an old case of the lethal cat litter sold in amazone. They use the same manufacturer. And I am sweeting because I left it in my cousins house in a drawl.

Feels a little weird seeing a federal agency that is still opposed to serious injury and death

Takes a while for the bribes to start coming in, now that the Dems are gone.
