Nearly 20,000 portable charging power banks are being pulled from the Canadian market after federal safety officials flagged a potential fire risk, prompting a nationwide recall and renewed warnings about lithium-ion battery hazards.

Vancouver-based LOGiiX is recalling its Piston Power 5000 Mag Power Banks, which were manufactured in China and sold in a range of colours. A power bank is a portable, rechargeable battery used to charge electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets and earbuds when a wall outlet isn’t available.

LOGiiX is a consumer electronics company that designs and distributes mobile accessories, including power banks, charging cables, cases, and audio products.


The notice says, “A small number of power banks may overheat when used to charge a device or when charging the power banks, posing a fire hazard.”

According to the recall notice, four incidents had been reported in Canada as of Feb. 9, though no injuries have been linked to the product.

According to CTV News website, the affected products were sold nationwide from January 2022 through July 2025 and include the following models:

• Model number: LGX-13302, the colour black
  
• Model number: LGX-13303, the colour white

• Model number: LGX-13839, the colour lavender
  
• Model number: LGX-13840, the colour blush
  

The notice states that the model number is printed on the bottom of the packaging, just above the barcode. According to CTV News website, consumers should stop using the recalled power bank immediately and reach out to LOGiiX to obtain a replacement, Health Canada advises.

Health Canada also advises consumers to consult their local municipality for guidance on the safe transportation and disposal of lithium-ion batteries.

The notice states that under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act, recalled products must not be redistributed, sold or given away in Canada.
