THE CORPORATION BEHIND the E-dublinbikes scheme has recalled all of its battery packs due to potential short-circuiting.
JCDecaux said all the batteries will undergo a comprehensive review along with hardware and firmware updates.
It said it made the decision after a defect was identified by the battery manufacturer, located in France, where in certain circumstances the battery could potentially short circuit when it is charging.
