If you own an Anker PowerCore 10000 power bank, then you’ll want to take a quick look at the product details on the bottom. Anker has issued a recall for these power banks with the model number A1263.

It’s important to note that Anker is only recalling power banks sold in the US with certain serial numbers. You’ll be able to find out if you own an affected model by taking a look at the product details. As mentioned earlier, these details can be found on the bottom of the device. Make sure that the model number, which can be found under the product’s name, says A1263.

If the model number matches, you’ll need to head over to Anker’s website and use their verification tool to find out if your serial number is included in the recall. The company recommends that if the serial number has faded away, you should request guidance from Anker. Also, if your power bank is confirmed to be part of the recall, then you should immediately stop using the device.
