Are your battery products safe and secure?

The frequency of battery related accidents have seen significant increase over the past few years.

They are commonly observed in power banks/mobile phone batteries and laptop batteries.

One of the most important factors to look for when selecting a power bank is its quality/safety feature.

In order to cut cost, safety features are often neglected, if not totally ignored.

Low battery quality and the absence of safety features are why fake power banks are cheaper.

The market is filled with fake power banks, and many of them are advertised and priced as original, branded power banks.

Many of them also come with original labelling/stickers which makes it very difficult to differentiate between fakes and original.

Buying from certified retailers, authorized dealers, official website ensures that you will avoid getting a fake product.

According to a research conducted, more than 60% of power banks submitted for qualification were untraceable.

These power banks have no proper supplier info, vague specification, and are compliant to no safety certifications. Up to 50% of the submitted samples failed the qualification.

Pisen power bank comes with 1 year warranty, and 7S Protection which offers overcharging, overheating, short circuit, over discharge, over power, over current and over voltage protection.

Unhealthy batteries typically carry indicators such as bulges, deformation and leakage.

Overheating/shorter standby time may also indicate battery damage. When in doubt, it is best to stop using said device, and consult your supplier directly.
