The Consumer Product Safety Commission and Anker now recall Anker EverFrost Battery Powered Cooler Model A17A0,1, and 2.  The lithium-ion batteries in these coolers overheat with fire and burn hazards.


About 5480 coolers were sold in the US and about 160 were sold in Canada at Best Buy, TD Synnex, and other stores nationwide and online at kickstarter.com.


Stop charging and using these coolers.  Contact Anker at 1-800-988-7973 or via email at [email protected] for a free replacement battery pack and instructions regarding battery pack replacement and old battery disposal.
