"The ultralight gummy bear power bank just got yanked from Amazon"

I've seen it recommended by backpackers watching every ounce of their gear (can't remember if I posted about it, or maybe set a post in the future). Here's a write-up, and also there's a long thread:

Have you seen this Haribo power bank? It's cute! It's also become a sensation on social media because it offers one of the best power-to-weight ratios on the market, with a capacity of 20,000 mAh at just 286 grams.

We CT scanned one and found something alarming inside... 🧵 pic.twitter.com/0k8SAtyttj

Shortly after we first published these scans, Amazon yanked them from sale. https://t.co/AMHmhtvR0y

But there's more! There are also Haribo-branded wireless earbuds. Also cute! Naturally we bought some and CT scanned them. pic.twitter.com/YxyDX6koya
