Flaunt has issued a voluntary recall for its MagSafe Battery Charger power banks due to a potential fire hazard. The recall affects only units carrying the model number E33A, which were sold in four distinct color options: Melon (BL354CH), Black (BL913CH), Lavender (LA291CH), and White (WH871CH). Consumers can locate the model identifier printed on the product itself.
Nature of the Safety Hazard
The recall was triggered by a defect in the charger’s lithium-ion battery, which can overheat to the point of ignition. This flaw presents serious fire and burn risks that could lead to significant injury or even death. According to official reports, there has already been one incident resulting in a burned hand and another involving a burn to a consumer’s arm. Additionally, four separate cases of minor property damage have been documented.
Consumer Guidance and Compensation
Individuals who own a Flaunt MagSafe Battery Charger are strongly urged to immediately inspect their device for the E33A model number. Use of the affected power bank should be discontinued without delay. Owners can then proceed to Flaunt’s official recall registration page. After completing the verification process, impacted consumers are entitled to either a full refund of $65 or an $80 store credit, providing a clear financial incentive to participate in the return.
