iStore is recalling about 8,520 Magnetic Wireless Power Banks (model IST-09991/W05) because the lithium-ion battery can overheat and ignite. There have been three reports of these 5000 mAh portable chargers exploding while charging, resulting in $15,000 in property damage and one minor burn injury. Consumers who purchased these chargers from airport stores, vending machines, or iStore.co between February 2023 and May 2025 should immediately stop using them and participate in the refund program.
The internal lithium-ion battery can overheat and explode while charging, posing a serious fire hazard and the risk of burn injuries to consumers. One incident has already resulted in a minor burn to a victim's arm and significant property damage.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled wireless portable power bank and go to the firm's website to participate in the recall. Consumers will be asked to submit two photographs via email to recall@istore.co. The first photograph should be the front of the power bank with the word "Recalled" and the date written on it with permanent marker. The second photograph should include the model number, which is located on the back of the power bank. A purchase receipt will be requested but will not be required to participate in the recall. Consumers should immediately dispose of the power banks in accordance with local and state hazardous waste disposal regulations.
