TORONTO, June 25, 2026 – Health Canada announced on June 25 the nationwide recall of 4,964 Super Off-Road solar wireless power banks because the lithium-ion batteries inside the products may overheat or swell, creating a fire hazard. Consumers who purchased the affected products between 2019 and 2023 should check the model number and stop using them immediately. Recalled products must not be sold, transferred or given to another person.
The recalled product is the Super Off-Road 12,000 mAh Solar Wireless Power Bank, model T1037. The black power bank has solar charging and wireless charging functions and measures approximately 8.6 centimetres wide and 16.5 centimetres long.
Health Canada said the lithium-ion battery inside the power bank may overheat or swell. A defective battery could damage the product casing and increase the risk of fire.
As of June 23, the company had received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada. One report was received in the United States involving two swollen batteries, with no injuries reported.
The products were sold between January 2019 and December 2023. A total of 4,964 units were sold in Canada and 7,399 were sold in the United States. Because the products have not been sold for some time, consumers should check whether they still have one stored at home, in a vehicle, with camping equipment or among emergency supplies.
Health Canada is advising consumers to stop using the recalled product immediately and contact importer Spector and Co. to register for a refund and receive disposal instructions. Consumers should not continue charging the product while waiting for instructions.
Under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act, recalled products cannot be redistributed, sold or given away in Canada. Even if a product is not currently overheating, deformed or swollen, it should not be listed for sale on a second-hand marketplace.
Consumers registering for a refund can prepare the product model number, photographs of the item and proof of purchase. Those who no longer have the original receipt can contact the company directly to confirm which documents are required.
Consumers who notice unusual heat, swelling or other safety problems can submit a report through Health Canada’s consumer product incident reporting system. Lithium-ion batteries should not be placed in regular household garbage without first confirming local disposal requirements.（LJI by Yuanyuan）
