Toys that can damage a child's hearing or induce epileptic fits have been found on sale in Hong Kong with some products lacking the necessary warnings for parents, the Consumer Council said on Thursday. The watchdog said it tested 30 battery-powered products with sound or light features, including toy phones, keyboards, walkie-talkies and trains, priced at between HK$28 and HK$399. Eight of the items failed battery safety checks, with the batteries left exposed after drop or pull tests. Of the 22 toys with light features, three did not have the required labels to warn of a potential risk they could trigger photosensitive epilepsy. One toy also played music louder than the 80-decibel limit set out in safety standards, with the council warning that prolonged exposure to excessive noise can harm a child's hearing at a time when their auditory system is still developing. "We urge relevant manufacturers and suppliers to check the results of this test and improve the product design and labelling to improve the safety of toys and strengthen the protection of children," the watchdog said. "The Consumer Council reminds parents and caregivers to pay close attention to product labels and safe usage when purchasing and using battery-operated toys with sound or light features, in order to reduce potential risks to children." It added that parents should check the recommended ages for individual products, make sure children don't hold noisy toys too close to their ears, and not to let children stare at lights coming from toys for too long.

Botswana represents opportunities for Korean mining, battery and construction firms, with access to critical minerals and fast-growing African markets, Botswana’s Foreign Minister Phenyo Butale said in an interview with The Korea Herald. Botswana's pitch comes as Korean companies search for new sources of critical minerals needed for industries such as batteries, semiconductors and renewable energy. According to Butale, Botswana's mineral reserves could support those very industries. The country

The newest Qi2.2-certified models can wirelessly charge an iPhone 16 or later at up to 25W. Combine that with their ability to magnetically snap on via MagSafe, and you’ve […]
ISLAMABAD: A Senate subcommittee on Monday voiced alarm over widespread internet degradation and fuel theft from telecom sites, after being told that more than 9,200 incidents of theft and vandalism had hit about 16 per cent of the country’s cellular infrastructure in 11 months. The subcommittee of the Senate Standing Committee on Information Technology, chaired by Senator Sadia Abbasi, reviewed challenges posed to nationwide telecom service continuity. The committee was informed that Sindh recorded the highest number of 3,938 fuel theft cases across 31 districts, followed by Punjab with 2,827 incidents in 38 districts. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa reported 1,668 incidents across 25 districts, while Balochistan reported 716 incidents in 26 districts. During the briefing, officials of the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) said that persistent loadshedding had severely deteriorated service continuity by rapidly depleting backup batteries and exhausting local generators. To build long-term resilience, the PTA has engaged Nepra and the power division to secure dedicated priority power feeders and speed up deployment of smart transformers for critical telecom nodes. Separately, the Universal Service Fund (USF) and its quality assurance teams reported infrastructure deployments in Balochistan. While 80pc of target areas are identified through competitive bidding, severe security vulnerabilities and systemic diesel theft continue to undermine telecom operations. In response, the committee directed relevant departments to map high-theft hotspots and instructed district and provincial authorities to handle complaints strictly under the law. The panel also reviewed network modernisation steps, including recent spectrum auctions that expanded bandwidth by 480 MHz and the issuance of 5G commercial licences in March 2026. Infrastructure targets include raising average 4G speeds from 4 Mbps to 20 Mbps, mandatory rollout of 1,000 new sites annually, and introducing Voice over LTE and Voice over Wi-Fi services. To enforce compliance, the regulator has set stringent network downtime thresholds for cellular mobile operators. CMOs must now keep downtime to 5pc or less at the UC level, 3pc or less at the tehsil level, 2pc or less at the district level, and 1pc or less nationwide. The committee reaffirmed that internet access must be classified under essential services criteria. It directed all telecom operators to execute immediate safeguards against fuel theft to ensure national connectivity standards are met without interruption. Published in Dawn, June 2nd, 2026
US data from 37 different airlines show two flights a week had issues with overheating batteries
Sales of electric vehicles (EVs) in China recovered on solid footing in May, as new models fitted with higher-performance batteries and more advanced driver assistance systems drew consumers amid intensified competition. Zeekr, a premium EV brand owned by Geely Auto, the country’s second-largest carmaker, and Stellantis-backed Leapmotor rewrote their monthly delivery records, the latest sign that local government subsidies have whetted consumers’ buying appetite for big-ticket items. Although...

Australia is pioneering a revolution in home renewables and battery use, proving what is possible with the right policies The timing was rich with symbolism. As intense heatwaves pummelled Europe and Asia, and oil markets around the world leapt and sputtered, the two big chimneys of one of Australia’s largest power stations were being demolished. Meanwhile, the Australian energy minister was holding a media conference to hail a fall of up to 10% in the benchmark electricity price in parts of the country. Quietly, and with surprisingly little fanfare from the rest of the world, Australia is pioneering a revolution in home renewables and battery use, proving what is possible with the right policies. The country was already one of the global leaders in domestic solar power, with panels on one in three homes. It also remains, however, a major contributor to the climate crisis through its vast fossil fuel exports.. But it is batteries that are giving Australia a new burst of speed. Continue reading...

Helmed by billionaire Michael Dell’s Son, Base Power is manufacturing its own home batteries to provide back up electricity in regions where the grid fails to serve people reliably.
Major US, European, and Japanese automakers are undergoing a process of strategic repositioning in the face of the accelerated rise of Chinese manufacturers, which have consolidated their leadership in electric vehicles, batteries, industrial design, and software development, according to an investigation published this week by the BBC on the occasion of Auto China 2026, the world's largest motor show. The transformation is reflected in the public acknowledgment from executives themselves: the president of Honda, Toshihiro Mibe, said after visiting a highly automated plant in Shanghai that his company has "no chance against this," while Ford CEO Jim Farley warned that Western carmakers are "in a fight for our lives."
