Interestingly from the photo of the device on the recall notice [3], this device doesn't include the C3 mark, which is the regulatory approval marker for inside China.

In the last couple of weeks, there's been a lot of noise [1] about how the regulations [2] about carrying power banks on planes in China got a lot stricter and any powerbank without a C3 mark is prohibited on-board, regardless of size, also any device with the C3 mark that's subject to a recall.

Given the timing of these two events, I suspect that there's some relationship.
