Popular Charging Device Recalled Over 16 Fire Incidents

A recall of several Belkin power banks and wireless charging stands has been issued by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) due to potential fire and burn hazards. The lithium-ion battery within the affected products can overheat, with more than a dozen reports of fire incidents being caused by the device. These electronics are sold nationwide and at large retailers including Target, Walmart, Best Buy, and Amazon. Here’s what to do if you own one of these recalled Belkin products.

Belkin recall impacts over 80,000 power banks and charging stands

The Belkin products impacted by this recall are the Wireless Charging Stand model number MMA008 and Portable Power Banks with model numbers BPB002 and PB0003, as outlined in a CPSC report issued on November 13.

The recall affects roughly 83,500 units in the US and 2,385 units in Canada that were sold online and in stores from August 2020 to August 2025. The products ranged in retail price from $29 to $180. The charging stands and BPB002 power banks were sold in black, while the PB0003 power banks can be found in black or white.

The company has confirmed that there has been 16 reports of fire incidents, one in the United States and fifteen internationally. The products have been connected to two minor burn injuries and property damage over $37,000 outside of the US.

It is recommended that consumers with the affected products stop using them immediately and contact Belkin for a full refund or store credit. The CPSC report advises that consumers do not dispose the lithium-ion battery or the Belkin devices in the usual trash bin, recycling, or used battery recycling boxes since these type of batteries pose “a greater risk of fire.” They should instead be disposed at a household hazardous waste (HHW) collection center, if available.

Earlier in November, nearly 300,000 Jeeps have been recalled for a potential fire risk as well. In June, Ford recalled nearly 42,000 vehicles for concerns over potential crashes and fires too.
