What Is the Flaunt MagSafe Charger Recall?

The recall involves Flaunt MagSafe Battery Charger power banks with model number E33A. “FLAUNT” is engraved on the front right side, and a small circular button appears near the bottom center of the front.

The back label is marked “FLAUNT” and “Model: E33A.” Recalled chargers were sold in melon, black, lavender, and white.

The chargers measure about 3 inches by 2 inches by 0.25 inches and weigh approximately 3.2 ounces.

Where Were the Recalled Chargers Sold?

The recalled Flaunt MagSafe Battery Chargers were sold online at flauntcases.com from May 2024 through April 2025 for about $65.

CPSC identifies iDecoz Inc., doing business as Flaunt, of Brooklyn, New York, and Case-Mate, of Atlanta, Georgia, as the importers. The recalled chargers were manufactured in China.

CPSC identifies the action as recall number 26-610.

Why Were Flaunt MagSafe Chargers Recalled?

The lithium-ion battery inside the recalled power bank can overheat and ignite. That failure can produce sudden heat, flame, smoke, property damage, and burn injuries.

Relevant evidence after an incident may include the charger, charging cable, phone, case, outlet, surrounding surface, burn marks, melted housing, and any damaged belongings.

Consumers should not intentionally recharge, test, puncture, open, or disassemble a recalled charger to determine whether it will fail.

What Incidents and Injuries Have Been Reported?

Flaunt received five reports of the recalled power banks overheating and catching fire.

One consumer reported a burn to the hand, and another reported a burn to the arm. Four reports involved minor property damage.

CPSC does not identify additional injuries in the recall notice. Individual claims should therefore rely on the documented facts and medical evidence associated with the particular incident.

Why Lithium-Ion Battery Fires Can Be Dangerous

Lithium-ion batteries store significant energy in a compact package. If a battery overheats or ignites, the event may develop quickly and expose nearby people and property to heat, smoke, or flame.

A power bank may be used or stored near bedding, clothing, purses, desks, couches, vehicles, or other combustible materials. That placement can increase potential property losses if ignition occurs.

The particular cause of an incident should be determined from the recalled charger and evidence rather than assumed from unrelated battery fires.

What Should Consumers Do?

Consumers should stop using recalled Flaunt MagSafe Battery Chargers immediately and contact Flaunt to begin the recall process.

Flaunt is offering a full $65 refund by check or an $80 store credit. Consumers must register and submit two photographs, including one showing the front of the power bank marked “Recalled,” with the consumer’s initials and registration date.

The second photograph must show model number E33A on the back of the charger.

How Should the Recalled Charger Be Disposed Of?

CPSC warns consumers not to place the recalled lithium-ion power bank in household trash, curbside recycling, or used-battery recycling boxes.

Flaunt will provide disposal instructions after consumers complete the recall registration process. Consumers may need to contact a municipal household hazardous-waste collection center and confirm that it accepts recalled lithium-ion batteries.

EPA similarly advises keeping lithium-ion batteries out of household garbage and municipal recycling and using appropriate battery-recycling or hazardous-waste collection programs.

Why Evidence Preservation Matters

If the charger already caused a fire, burn, smoke event, or property damage, consumers should document the unit before marking or disposing of it when this can be done safely.

Photographs should show the front and back of the charger, model E33A, color, charging cable, phone or case used with it, melting, soot, fire damage, and surrounding property.

Save order histories, Flaunt emails, refund communications, fire reports, repair estimates, insurance documents, photographs, and medical records.

Who May Be Affected?

Potentially affected people include consumers who purchased or used recalled Flaunt MagSafe Battery Chargers.

Other people may also be affected if a charger ignited near them even though they did not purchase or operate the device. Family members, roommates, coworkers, passengers, guests, or children may suffer burns or smoke exposure in a nearby fire.

Property owners may experience losses involving furniture, bedding, clothing, bags, electronics, vehicles, flooring, walls, or other belongings.

Who May Be Liable?

Potentially responsible parties may include Flaunt, iDecoz Inc., Case-Mate, the manufacturer, battery-cell suppliers, component suppliers, distributors, or other entities involved in designing, manufacturing, importing, or selling the charger.

Potential legal theories may include defective design, manufacturing defects, inadequate warnings, negligence, breach of warranty, or other product-liability claims available under applicable law.

The recall does not automatically establish liability. Product identification, causation, defect evidence, injuries, damages, and governing law must be evaluated individually.

Do I Qualify?

  • Did you own or use a Flaunt MagSafe Battery Charger with model number E33A?
  • Did the charger overheat, smoke, melt, ignite, or catch fire?
  • Did the incident cause a burn, smoke exposure, medical treatment, or documented property damage?
  • Do you have the charger, photographs, Flaunt order history, damaged property, fire reports, or medical records?

An individualized legal review can determine whether the recalled charger, incident mechanism, injuries or property damage, available evidence, and applicable filing deadlines support a potential claim.

What Evidence Should I Preserve?

Preserve the charger, charging cable, phone case, packaging, purchase confirmation, photographs, videos, fire reports, damaged property, and communications with Flaunt when safe to do so.

Medical records, burn photographs, bills, discharge instructions, insurance documents, and repair estimates may also help establish resulting losses.

Do not recharge, test, disassemble, or otherwise manipulate the charger after an incident unless immediate safety requires action.
