The PowerCore 10000, MagGo Power Bank and Zolo Power Bank are part of a global recall issued by Anker.

After announcing a global recall of its Power Core 10,000 power banks in early June, Anker is expanding the recall to include five more models. The initial recall came after 19 reports of portable chargers catching fire and exploding. The latest recall follows a previous one of the PowerCore 10000 model number A1642 in October 2024.

Let’s be clear: the company claims the risk of malfunction is minimal. But “minimal” is meaningless if you’re the unlucky one whose charger goes up in flames inside a backpack, car, or pocket. If you own one of these, stop using it immediately and take advantage of Anker’s replacement or gift card offer – it’s not worth the gamble.
