How to Fix: New Anker powerbank strawberries smell from Port

The 'strawberries' smell from your Anker powerbank A110E is likely due to a chemical reaction between the battery cells and the internal components of the device. This phenomenon, known as 'battery acid leakage,' can occur when new batteries are exposed to air for an extended period. The smell is usually mild but can be noticeable if you bring your nose close to the ports.

⚠️ Common Causes

• The battery cells are new and have not been fully charged yet, causing a chemical reaction that releases gases.
• The powerbank's internal components, such as the PCB or capacitors, may be damaged due to manufacturing defects or exposure to moisture during transportation.
• Corrosion on the ports or internal connections could be causing the smell, which can be exacerbated by humidity or exposure to chemicals.
