TL;DR The semi-solid-state battery-powered magnetic power banks first shown at CES 2026 are now available to buy, starting at $59.
Unlike traditional power banks, they use battery cells with significantly less flammable liquid electrolyte to improve thermal stability and reduce fire risk.
The lineup also includes what BMX calls the world’s thinnest 5,000mAh Qi2 magnetic power bank, measuring just 6.8mm at its thinnest point.
Power banks haven’t really changed much in recent years. Sure, we have faster, thinner, and more feature-packed power banks these days, but most of them still rely on the same lithium-ion batteries that have been around for years. Now, a company is betting that the next major upgrade isn’t charging speed or capacity, but the battery chemistry itself.

Singapore-based BMX has announced that its SolidSafe magnetic power bank lineup, first showcased at CES 2026, is now available for purchase through its website and Amazon US, with prices starting at $59.
What sets these power banks apart is their use of semi-solid-state batteries. Traditional lithium-ion and lithium-polymer batteries rely on liquid electrolytes to move energy between electrodes. Semi-solid-state batteries significantly reduce the amount of flammable liquid inside the cell, improving thermal stability and lowering the risk of overheating, swelling, or fire.
