November 13, 2025: CPSC and Belkin Announce Power Bank Recall
On November 13, 2025, Belkin and the CPSC announced a voluntary recall of two power bank models and one charging stand. The recall spans roughly 83,500 units in the United States, plus about 2,385 in Canada.
Lithium-ion battery cells in the recalled units can overheat. This creates fire and burn hazards for users. No CPSC closure notice has been issued, so the recall remains open.
Which Belkin Power Banks Are Affected?
Belkin names three products in its own recall guidance, the only items covered by CPSC Recall #26-090:
- Auto-Tracking Stand Pro (MMA008) – all units sold, model number printed on the back or side of the device
- BoostCharge USB-C PD Power Bank 20K (BPB002) – all units sold, model number printed on the back or side of the device
- BoostCharge USB-C PD Power Bank 20K (PB0003) – all units sold, model number printed on the back or side of the device
Belkin sold these products through Best Buy, Target, Walmart, Amazon.com, TikTok and Belkin.com between August 2020 and August 2025, at prices from about $29 to $180.
Why Were Belkin Power Banks Recalled?
Belkin recalled the Auto-Tracking Stand Pro and the BoostCharge USB-C PD Power Bank 20K because a manufacturing defect can make their lithium-ion battery cells overheat. The overheating can cause the devices to catch fire or burn the people using them.
Belkin describes the cause in its own words, in the recall notice it filed with the CPSC: “a manufacturing defect may cause the products’ lithium-ion cell components to overheat.”
The defect affects every unit sold under the Auto-Tracking Stand Pro and BoostCharge USB-C PD Power Bank 20K, regardless of when it was purchased. This is CPSC Recall #26-090, announced jointly by Belkin and the CPSC.
Reported Incidents, Injuries, or Illnesses
The Verge reported that CPSC’s notice lists one US fire tied to a recalled power bank [1]. Outside the United States, Belkin and CPSC received 15 reports, including two minor burns and about $37,765 in property damage.
The CPSC notice does not list any deaths connected to this recall. These figures reflect reports collected before the recall was announced on November 13, 2025. A report of an incident is not proof that a specific device caused it.
These incident reports are separate from the manufacturing defect that Belkin and the CPSC cite as the reason for the recall.
What Should Consumers Do?
If you own one of the recalled power banks or stands, take the following steps:
- Stop using the recalled Auto-Tracking Stand Pro or BoostCharge USB-C PD Power Bank 20K immediately, even if it appears to work normally.
- TechRadar’s coverage explains how to confirm your device’s model number matches one of the three recalled models listed above [2].
- Contact Belkin at 800-223-5546, available 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit belkin.com/MMA008recall or belkin.com/BPB002recall. You can also report a problem through the CPSC Recall Complaint form at cpsc.gov/form/recall-complaint-form.
- Submit clear photos of the front and back of the device with your refund or store-credit claim.
- Choose a full refund or a 120% store credit, whichever Belkin’s claim process offers for your model.
- Keep the battery out of the trash and store recycling boxes, and ask your local household hazardous waste center whether it accepts recalled lithium-ion batteries.
Other Recalls, Warnings, or International Actions
Belkin issued an earlier, separate recall on December 5, 2024, for a different product [3]. That recall, CPSC #25-061, covered about 4,000 BoostCharge Pro Fast Wireless Charger units in the United States and 62 in Canada.
It involved model BPD005, a wireless charger and power bank combination. The hazard was the same general type: a lithium-ion battery that could overheat. Belkin offered a full refund or store credit for that recall too.

Is There a Deadline to File a Claim Related to a Defective Power Bank?
Yes, there is a deadline to file a claim related to a defective power bank, and it comes from state law. The deadline varies based on where you live and when the fire, burn, or property damage happened.
Can Renters or Homeowners File a Claim for Fire Damage from a Recalled Power Bank?
