The risk comes from some of the lithium-ion batteries used in the Anker 334 MagGo Battery (PowerCore 10K), Anker Power Bank and Anker MagGo Power Bank. Customers have been warned not to throw the powerbank in a trash or recycling bin.
The company said "only a small number of batteries (a batch used in the products from January 3, 2024, to September 17, 2024) may be affected by this issue"; however, the recall programme is being initiated out of "an abundance of caution."
Here's what to do if you own one of the recalled models:
