Airlines say cannot carry as check in

20,000 mah cannot carry onboard airlines in the past, maybe they relax the rules for this capacity.

10,000 mah still can.

ask your neighbour to hold on to it for you first... make sure at least a few units away

Keep inside letterbox.

Still much better than unnamed mass market ones. At least there is a recall. Others just close up and rebrand.

powerbank have been around for donkey years....there's millions of it left at home unattended during that period. do you hear of them catching fire?

Got to leave it unplug to play safe. 2 of our company room catch fire and burn down few PCs due powerbank left charging unattended

Link the powerbanks within a containment to your arc reactor. If chibaboom it recharges it, if not it drains the arc reactor.

Letterbox is safest place to keep.
If lost, the first suspect is the postman since only both of u have access.

it can happen to anything that is charging..
TS gave example of it being unplugged.

i gave example that millions of powerbanks have been around for donkey years that were left unattended unplugged that didn't catch fire.

i still have some Xiaomi powerbank that is more than a decade old at home, charged and unplugged and seldom used for many years...

the most that can happen for TS's example where they are fully charged and left unattended is that the batteries themselves will slowly deteriorate and or bloat but that will take a very long time.

Your turned on fridge got more likelihood to chibaboom than your powerbank...

 

[jumpthepig]

How is unplug power bank dangerous

If so….shops at SL Sq kept boxes of power bank there, then how??

 

[lalalalalala]

If aeroplanes cannot even risk putting them for a few hrs in check in cargo, then my powerbanks got chance to chibaboom at home

i sometimes not at home for days

Imo airplane have pressure change which is why it's more risky.
