Belkin Recalls Auto-Tracking Stand Pro and Two Power Banks Due to Fire Risk

For the pearl-clutchers: Be more concerned about the jumble-named companies that never issue a recall.

Their brand used to be synonymous with superior accessories. Now, not so much. While I still have a few Belkin items in my home and car, now I am quite cautious about buying anything by them.

lithium battery fires. When will it end?

Probably when all lithium batteries go solid state, while they can still catch fire, they should be much safer.

What was terrible about it? Did it charge your device terribly?

No the tracking was very aggressive and unnatural.

Lol. I get all my accesories on Amazon from CHPSHT, FRHZRD and CHNJNK. So cheap and they never have safety recalls!

Ok, that one made me laugh. Good one!

Have the BPB002 and it is (was) quite impressive. Any good suggestions what to get as a replacement?

Has anyone tried submitting a claim yet? I've tried in two different browsers and have the same issue....hit submit...the confirmation page shows blanks next to where the case # should be.

Same here, the page says submission successful, but no case ID. I'll give it a few days and see if I get any response by e-mail.

It's a shame as it's the only stand that uses DockKit! Such a big hole in the market for a native iOS feature that came out in 2023..

do companies tend to fix this and re-release the product?
