Anker has issued a recall notice for its Anker 334 MagGo Battery (PowerCore 10K, model number A1642), Anker Power Bank (model number A1647), and Anker MagGo Power Bank (model number A1652). The company says a manufacturing defect can cause the power banks’ lithium-ion batteries to overheat and potentially cause a fire risk.
It’s the same issue that triggered a recall in June for another Anker power bank. The company says only a small number of batteries were affected by the defect but that it’s recalling all of the portable chargers “out of an abundance of caution.”
