Rain Technology reported on June 29 that in response to the growing demand for aviation safety, the Civil Aviation Administration recently issued an emergency notice. From June 28, passengers are prohibited from taking domestic flights with power banks without 3C marks, unclear 3C marks, and recalled models or batches. This regulation aims to reduce safety hazards from the source and ensure the safety of passengers’ flight.
According to the information of the “Shenzhen Airport Release” official account, after the implementation of the new regulations, Shenzhen Airport responded quickly and announced that it would provide passengers with free temporary storage of power banks. This move undoubtedly brings great convenience to passengers and avoids the trouble of delaying travel due to power bank issues. It has to be said that Shenzhen Airport’s response is very fast and humane.
The temporary storage location is located at the check-in island B island at the fourth floor of the terminal, and the temporary storage period is 7 days. When passengers apply for temporary storage, the staff will issue a receipt as a receipt. This move also facilitates passengers to retrieve when they return, avoiding permanent loss.
If a passenger has applied for the power bank temporary storage service, please be sure to collect it with a receipt within the temporary storage time limit. If the deadline is overdue, it will be deemed to be self-deprecating. Therefore, passengers need to properly keep the receipt and go to collect it within the specified time to avoid unnecessary losses.
For power banks that have been recalled by Anker and Romes, passengers can apply in accordance with the official process requirements and apply for a recall online with “group photos of electronic or paper boarding passes and physical items of the power bank, models and SN photos on the back of the power bank, and power bank purchase records”. This is the most direct way to solve the problem, and relevant users must operate in a timely manner.
After the refund or return of the power bank that meets the requirements by Anker and Romes, the recalled power bank will be handed over to the staff at the end of the check-in island B, the check-in counter, and the security check channel, and will be handled as self-deprecating. This part of the power bank will no longer be retrieved, remember.
It is understood that recently, many leading brand power bank manufacturers have actively recalled multiple batches of products due to the safety risks of battery cells. Brand recall reflects the company’s high attention to product safety, and can also indirectly reflect that industry standards are gradually strengthening, and consumers should pay more attention.
Preliminary estimates that The two brands of Romes and Anker Innovation alone plan to recall more than 1.2 million power bank products. This number is really amazing, and it also reflects that the safety of power banks cannot be ignored. This also reminds us that when purchasing a power bank, we must choose a brand with formal channels and reputable reputation, and carefully check whether the product has a 3C certification mark.
According to the announcement, due to the incoming materials of some of the battery cell raw materials, a very small number of products may overheat during use, which may cause combustion risks in extreme scenarios and pose safety risks. Therefore, for the sake of its own safety, it is recommended that relevant users conduct recall processing as soon as possible.
