Amazon has recently removed the Haribo gummy bear power bank from its platform and is canceling orders, citing potential safety or quality issues. The compact 20,000mAh power bank, known for its lightweight design and built-in USB-C cable, was a popular choice among users seeking portability and fast charging capabilities.
Despite its lightweight nature at just 9.9 ounces, the device was equipped with safety features such as protection against overcharging, overheating, and overpowering. The collaboration between Haribo and a crowdfunded brand in Japan led to the creation of this unique power bank, which is now unavailable on Amazon.
Amazon informed customers about the removal, emphasizing customer safety as its top priority. The exact nature of the safety or quality issue has not been disclosed, leaving the future availability of the product uncertain. Both Haribo and Amazon have been approached for further details, but responses are pending.
