OPSS warning on dangerous UPP e-bike batteries

The Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) is warning consumers to stop using dangerous models of UPP batteries in their e-bikes. These batteries have been linked to multiple serious fires.

OPSS previously issued a warning about these UPP batteries in January 2024 when it took action to require online marketplaces to stop selling them.

The specific models affected are UPP (Unit Pack Power) U004 and U004-1.

These models should not be used as they are dangerous and can cause a serious fire or explosion that spreads rapidly, and which can lead to serious injury or death.
