#12I guess this serves as an ad for Lumafield's x-ray machines. I have no use for one but those scans are stunning.
killer way to market a product.
Here's a blog post with interesting information that just so happens to advertise how you can use our product

#13Amazon sent me a recall notice about this one, indicating they had it from my purchase history, but oddly I couldn't find it in my own collection of power banks, or in the ones I gave to my wife. I'm worried I might have purchased one for another family member as a gift and not remembered who.
The recall is concerning, especially since once they started with the one, they quickly added several more to the list. I've ordered at least 17 Anker products over the last ten years (not all of them power banks). I pay the premium over cheaper external batteries, and I have advised my family in the past to do the same. This is ostensibly because they are supposed to be the guys that don't explode. If I can't even take that for granted, then there's really no reason to maintain customer loyalty. There are countless other, cheaper brands available online from no-name Chinese companies.

They also do recalls. Which I’m certain is more than some cheaper no name brands do.

#16Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yes, Lumafield does some of my favorite marketing ever. It adds more (absolute) value to the world than they receive back from it. Their monthly CT scans are some of my favorite small joys: https://www.scanofthemonth.com/ I mean, there's probably very good ROI on this marketing; I'm not saying they're foolish or selfless. Just that it doesn't cost them that much to do, so it's a win-win for everyone.
But will it blend? actually no let's not blend the lithium, forbidden inhaled powder
It's a liquid.

#17I imagine there will be a stunning amount of owners that will either: A) Keep using it, even if they do hear about the recall B) Throw it in the trash can
Both will ultimately be true for a disturbing percentage.

Those random brands that flood amazon (TYUOIT or ERYWERP) are dispensable brands in part because it allows them to discharge the company if something like a recall becomes necessary.
Part of the price of cheap shit.
Anker on the other hand is a recognizable name with a brand image. So they need to do right to keep their trust.

And they might pay from now on closer attention. Expensive lesson learned?
For now I don't avoid them, yet. Definitely not switching to a random cinese brand instead.
