To be honest, the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 battery fire still makes me a little paranoid to this day. Lithium-ion batteries catching on fire isn’t exactly new, but to see it on such a massive scale is scary. Knowing that even the slightest defect could cause such an issue is concerning. If you’re looking for a power bank that would reduce that risk, BMX (Better Mobile Xperience) has launched their new SolidSafe Qi2 solid-state batteries.
The SolidSafe lineup features three capacity options to fit different needs. The 5K model offers an ultra-slim version for $79, while the 10K variant provides extra juice for longer days at $99. There’s also a 10K+ model with built-in microSD storage coming in February for $129. All three support Qi2 15W fast magnetic wireless charging, offering the same snap-on convenience as Apple’s MagSafe accessories.
Each SolidSafe power bank includes up to 30W USB-C input and output for fast wired charging. It has a full-color LCD display showing real-time percentage, wattage, and status updates. The built-in USB-C lanyard cable works as both a carrying strap and fast charger, eliminating the need to carry extra cables.
The batteries are encased in an aluminum housing for natural heat dissipation while ensuring a durable design. BMX also offers 3-bay and 5-bay charging docks for users needing to charge multiple units. The SolidSafe packs are available in Black, Orange, Blue, and Silver for the 5K and 10K models, while the 10K+ comes in Black.
What makes these power banks different and safer than the rest? For starters, they use solid-state batteries instead of traditional lithium-ion batteries. This means they’ve reduced the liquid electrolytes that typically cause fires or overheating issues. The company demonstrated this by drilling straight through a fully charged unit with no smoke, swelling, or ignition.
This launch comes at an interesting time, as over 1.7 million battery packs have been recalled globally since March 2025. Airlines are tightening restrictions on portable power devices. According to Daniel Chin, co-founder of BMX, “Power banks shouldn’t be the riskiest thing in your bag. With global recalls rising and new airline rules emerging, SolidSafe offers a safer alternative that cuts fire risks while maintaining top-tier performance.”
The SolidSafe magnetic battery packs are available now on the BMX website, with Amazon availability beginning in January 2026.
