13K Chargers Recalled from TJ Maxx and Marshalls Due to Explosion Risks

In a significant safety alert, over 13,000 wireless chargers sold in the U.S. at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls have been recalled due to concerns that they could “explode while in use,” as reported by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The Isla Rae-branded magnetic wireless chargers were officially recalled on Thursday, raising alarms about potential fire and burn hazards. The commission stated, “The chargers can explode while in use, posing a fire and burn hazard.”

These chargers were available for purchase at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls stores nationwide for $15 between June 2024 and November 2025. They were offered in various colors, including white, pink, and purple.

In addition to the 13,200 chargers sold in the U.S., approximately 7,000 units were also sold in Canada. These chargers are designed to be compatible with magnetic charging systems, attaching magnetically to the back of a phone for charging convenience.

The affected products carry a model number of RM5PBM, which can be located on the side of the charger, beneath the label that reads “5000 mAh 3.7V.”

Customers are strongly advised to “immediately” cease using the product and to request a refund. The commission has instructed that the chargers should be disposed of properly, emphasizing that they should not be thrown in the trash or general recycling bins.

“Recalled lithium-ion batteries must be disposed of differently than other batteries, as they present a greater risk of fire. Your municipal household hazardous waste (HHW) collection center may accept this recalled lithium-ion battery or device for disposal,” the commission added.

Fortunately, no injuries have been reported in connection with these chargers thus far.
