Anker Anker has announced that a manufacturing flaw might potentially cause a fire, leading to the recall of their 321 Power Bank (PowerCore 5K, model number A1112). With one USB-C port and one USB-A port, the 321 is a little power bank. Anker is recalling all of the products even though it claims that "only a small number" manufactured after March 2023 are impacted.
To find out if you have this model, look for "Anker 321 Power Bank (PowerCore 5K, Black), Model: A1112" in the white writing printed on the bottom. Anker advises you to cease using it right away if you do. To stake your claim for a replacement 533 Power Bank that the firm is offering affected owners, fill out this form with your serial number included. Prior to going there, try to locate your proof of purchase, as it is said that this will expedite the process.
Just a friendly reminder: never discard your batteries! Not only is e-waste a major issue, but throwing out batteries can start fires. Anker provides a number of links so that you can dispose of them responsibly in different nations. (Those in the US want to dispose of theirs can visit Call2Recycle or the website of the Environmental Protection Agency.)
There are more recalls that Anker is currently running. The 535 Power Bank was also recalled by the firm last year after it was determined that it was most likely the cause of a house fire in Maryland.
