> Amprius Technologies, Inc. has never developed or manufactured batteries for power banks. For accuracy, please attribute the certification issue to Apex (Wuxi), not Amprius. Recent reports have incorrectly linked Amprius Technologies, Inc. to a battery certification issue. The company involved is Apex (Wuxi) Co., Ltd., formerly known as Amprius (Wuxi) Co., Ltd., a Chinese lithium battery manufacturer based in Wuxi, China.
> Apex (Wuxi) was once a subsidiary of Amprius Inc. but was never part of Amprius Technologies, Inc. In early 2022, Apex was spun off, renamed, and has operated independently since, with no ties or relationships to Amprius Technologies, Inc.
According to the recall notice, these powerbanks were "manufactured between January 1st, 2016, and October 30th, 2019" [0], so that was very much during the time before this says that they were spun out into a separate company.
Going from that last quote, they would in fact have been made and sold by Apex(Inc) at the time it was a subsidiary of Amprius Inc. and claiming otherwise seems like deliberate deception.
Their own website makes clear that Amprius Technologies Inc and Apex (Wuxi) are related in the description of their CEO, who served as CEO of both companies simultaneously. [1]
