[quote=FARAZHTTP,673356]The decision to prohibit power banks on subways or any public transportation system depends on various factors, including safety concerns, regulations, and potential risks. As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, I'm not aware of any widespread prohibition of power banks on subways. However, policies and regulations can vary from one city or country to another. The primary concern with power banks is the possibility of fire hazards if they are damaged, faulty, or mishandled. Lithium-ion batteries, commonly used in power banks, have the potential to overheat and catch fire under certain circumstances. To mitigate these risks, many transportation authorities and airlines typically require passengers to carry their power banks in their carry-on luggage rather than checked baggage. Additionally, some regulations may restrict the capacity of power banks that can be carried on public transportation for safety reasons.[/quote]
