Chinese Airlines Withdraw Power Banks

July 1, 2025

Chinese airlines have begun massively withdrawing power banks due to the risk of fire. All power banks released without the 'CCC' mark, introduced only in 2024, are banned. This is related to the increasing number of fire incidents and problematic batteries from Amprius, which supplied them to Xiaomi, Baseus, Ugreen, and others - they have already announced a recall of millions of their batteries. Officially, the ban applies to domestic flights, but social media reports that they are being withdrawn on others as well.
