Overview

• Anker’s voluntary global recall now formally listed by the USCPSC covers five models: A1257, A1647, A1652, A1681, and A1689.
• The recalled power banks were sold from August 2023 through June 2025 at major retailers and marketplaces including Best Buy, Target, Amazon, AliExpress, Walmart, eBay, and TikTok.
• Regulators have logged 33 incidents tied to the affected units, including four minor burn injuries and one report of substantial property damage.
• Consumers are instructed to stop using recalled devices, submit a claim for a full refund or Anker gift card with a serial number and proof of purchase, and dispose of units only at facilities equipped for lithium‑ion batteries.
• Anker says it identified a potential issue with supplier‑sourced lithium‑ion cells and characterizes the likelihood of malfunction as minimal while proceeding out of caution.
