新国标来了，3C认证不够，充电宝合规进入全新阶段

Core Viewpoint - The recent surge in interest regarding power banks is attributed to the discussion of new national standards for mobile power safety, rather than incidents of product failures [1][3]. Group 1: New National Standards - The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has begun soliciting public opinions on the revision of the "Safety Technical Specifications for Mobile Power" [3]. - The new standards impose stricter safety requirements on power banks, including tests for overcharging, puncturing, crushing, and thermal abuse, ensuring that devices do not catch fire or overheat under these conditions [4][7]. - Compared to the existing standard GB 31241-2022, which was released on December 29, 2022, the new regulations demand more rigorous testing and quality assurance for battery safety [7][9]. Group 2: Industry Impact - The new standards will require manufacturers to enhance the design, materials, and production processes of power banks, addressing safety concerns from the production stage to the end product [9][13]. - The implementation of these standards may lead to increased costs for manufacturers, particularly affecting smaller and lesser-known brands, while larger companies like Anker and Xiaomi may adapt more easily [15]. - The changes in power bank standards could also influence the battery standards for smartphones and laptops, as manufacturers may upgrade their production lines to comply with the new regulations [15][17]. Group 3: Consumer Concerns - Consumers are worried that their recently purchased power banks may become obsolete due to the new standards, especially following recent incidents involving product recalls [10][11]. - The transition to the new standards is expected to take a significant amount of time, potentially delaying the enforcement until 2028, allowing consumers to use their current devices for several more years [11][12]. - The anticipated increase in production costs may lead to higher prices for compliant power banks, but ultimately, the focus on safety is expected to benefit consumers in the long run [12][18].
