Anker Recalls Soundcore Bluetooth Speakers Due to Fire Hazards

Anker Soundcore Bluetooth speakers are being recalled due to potential fire and burn hazards caused by overheating lithium-ion batteries. The recall affects models A3102016, A3302011, and A3302031 sold on Amazon.com from March 2023 to October 2023.

Twenty-three incidents have been reported involving the batteries overheating, resulting in minor burns and small fires. To determine if your speaker is affected, check the “SN Code” on the underside of the device and enter it on Anker’s website.

If you own one of the recalled speakers, stop using it immediately and ensure it’s powered off and disconnected from any power source. Fill out a product recall form on Anker’s website to receive a free replacement speaker. Dispose of the recalled unit in accordance with local regulations.

This is not an isolated issue for Anker; the company has issued recalls for several products featuring defective lithium-ion batteries, including power banks. It’s likely that many other battery-powered Anker products released throughout 2023 are affected.
