30K Power Banks Recalled in Canada | Montreal News

Published 6 days, 12 hours ago
Description

Thirty thousand XO Poppy 5000 mAh power banks are being recalled across Canada after reports that their lithium-ion batteries can overheat, melt, and cause fires — even while charging. Sold at Winners, HomeSense, and Marshalls from May 2024 to March 2026, these colorful power banks (bundled with USB-C cables) pose a serious burn and fire risk. Though no injuries have been reported in Canada yet, Health Canada urges immediate stop-use and return to any store for a full refund — no receipt needed. Thirty specific model numbers are affected. Don’t resell or give away these units — they’re banned from circulation.
