Latest XO Poppy Power Bank Recall Developments
September 2026
September 4, 2026 – TJ Maxx’s product recall page, updated September 4, 2026, listed the XO Poppy Power Trip Magnetic Wireless Power Bank among recalled products sold through its retail network. [1]
September 3, 2026 – Truststone Group recalled about 32,400 XO Poppy Power Trip Magnetic Wireless Power Banks because their lithium-ion batteries can overheat and ignite, posing fire and burn hazards. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) instructed consumers to stop using the power banks immediately and contact Truststone Group for a full refund in the form of a virtual gift card. [2]
What Is the XO Poppy Power Trip Power Bank?
The XO Poppy Power Trip is a magnetic wireless portable power bank imported by Truststone Group LLC of New York. The recalled devices were manufactured in Vietnam and sold exclusively at TJX and Marshalls stores nationwide from April 2025 through March 2026 for about $15.
The recall applies to model PYPBK5M. Consumers can identify affected units by checking the model information printed on the bottom of the original packaging directly above the barcode.
The recalled versions include:
- PY-PBK5M-CR2 – cream colored
- PY-PBK5M-BW8 – cream with pink bow print
- PY-PBK5M-TB2 – black with teddy bear print
The CPSC assigned the action recall number 26-740. About 32,400 power banks are included.
Why Were XO Poppy Power Banks Recalled?
The XO Poppy power banks were recalled because their lithium-ion batteries can overheat and ignite. An overheating battery can create enough heat to start a fire or cause burns if the device is being held, carried, charged, or stored near combustible materials.
The CPSC classified the problem as both a fire and burn hazard and instructed consumers to stop using affected power banks immediately. No incidents or injuries had been reported when the September 3, 2026 recall was announced.
What Should Consumers Do With a Recalled Power Bank?
Consumers should stop using the recalled devices and contact Truststone Group for a full refund. The refund is provided as a virtual gift card that can be used anywhere Mastercard is accepted.
The CPSC warns consumers not to place recalled lithium-ion batteries or devices in household trash, curbside recycling, general recycling streams, or ordinary battery collection boxes. Recalled lithium-ion batteries require special handling because damaged or defective batteries can create an increased fire risk.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency also advises against putting lithium-ion batteries in household garbage or municipal recycling bins because they can be damaged during collection or processing and become a fire hazard. The EPA recommends separate recycling or household hazardous waste collection for these batteries. [3]
Who May Have Been Affected?
Consumers who purchased an XO Poppy Power Trip Magnetic Wireless Power Bank from TJX or Marshalls between April 2025 and March 2026 may have an affected device. Approximately 32,400 units are covered by the recall.
A potential injury claim generally involves more than simply owning a recalled product. Relevant circumstances may include whether the power bank overheated, smoked, melted, ignited, damaged property, or caused a burn or other physical injury.
Consumers who experienced an incident may want to preserve the power bank, packaging, receipts, photographs, medical records, fire reports, and other documentation. This evidence can help determine whether an injury or property loss is connected to the recalled product.
Who May Be Liable for an XO Poppy Power Bank Injury?
Product liability law may impose responsibility on companies involved in making or distributing a defective product when the defect causes an injury. Depending on applicable state law and the facts, potential theories can include manufacturing defects, design defects, inadequate warnings, negligence, or breach of warranty.
Cornell Law School’s Legal Information Institute explains that product liability can involve manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, and retail sellers depending on the jurisdiction and circumstances. A claimant generally must establish a legally recognized defect and a causal connection between the defect and the injury. [4]
Truststone Group LLC is identified by the CPSC as the importer of the recalled power banks. Whether an importer, manufacturer, distributor, retailer, or another company may be liable requires an individual review of the evidence and applicable law.
Current XO Poppy Power Bank Lawsuit Status
The September 3, 2026 CPSC notice announces a consumer product recall and refund program. It does not announce a class action, multidistrict litigation proceeding, personal injury settlement, or similar litigation program involving the recalled XO Poppy power banks.
The existence of a recall does not automatically mean that every purchaser has a lawsuit. An individual claim may still be evaluated when a recalled product allegedly causes burns, another physical injury, or significant property damage.
Do I Qualify for an XO Poppy Power Bank Claim?
- Did you own or use an XO Poppy Power Trip Magnetic Wireless Power Bank covered by recall number 26-740?
- Did the device overheat, smoke, melt, ignite, or otherwise malfunction?
- Did you suffer a burn, fire-related injury, or other physical injury?
- Did the incident cause significant property damage or require medical treatment?
Answering yes to one or more of these questions does not automatically establish a legal claim. An attorney can review the product identification, incident evidence, injuries, damages, and applicable filing deadlines to determine whether further legal action may be appropriate.
Legal Process for an XO Poppy Power Bank Claim
- Free case review. An attorney reviews the recalled product, the circumstances of the incident, and any resulting injuries or property damage.
- Investigation. Evidence may include the power bank, packaging, purchase records, photographs, medical records, fire reports, witness information, and recall documentation.
- Filing. If the evidence and applicable law support a claim, a complaint may be filed against one or more potentially responsible parties before the relevant deadline expires.
- Discovery and negotiation. The parties may exchange evidence, obtain testimony, consult experts, evaluate defect and causation issues, and discuss possible resolution.
- Resolution. A case may conclude through dismissal, negotiated settlement, court ruling, or trial depending on its facts and procedural history.
Not every product liability claim follows the same timeline or reaches the same result. The process depends on the evidence, defendants, jurisdiction, disputed issues, and whether the parties reach an agreement.
