What is the hazard with EEMB Lithium-ion Coin Battery Chargers with Rechargeable 2032 Batteries?
EEMB Lithium-ion Coin Battery Chargers with Rechargeable 2032 Batteries was announced earlier this year, in the "Other" category. The recalled battery chargers violate the mandatory standard for consumer products containing button cell or coin batteries, because the charger has lithium coin batteries that can be accessed easily by children. In addition, the coin batteries provided with the battery charger are not in child-resistant packaging, and the packaging does not have the warnings, as required by Reese's Law. When button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death. This falls under one of the more serious hazard categories (injury, choking or strangulation risk), so the recall covers every unit sold, not only units with a reported incident.
What should you do if you own this product?
Consumers should stop using the charger immediately, remove the batteries and place them in an area that children cannot access. Contact A2batt to receive a full refund. Consumers will be asked to write "RECALL" on the charger. If batteries remain in packaging, dispose of the batteries according to local hazardous waste guidelines and provide a photo of the disposal to info@a2batt.com. Note: Button cell and coin batteries are hazardous. Batteries should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures. Sold at: Online at Amazon.com from August 2024 through March 2026 for about $14.. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.
How many units are affected?
About About 4,930 units of EEMB Lithium-ion Coin Battery Chargers with Rechargeable 2032 Batteries are covered by this recall, according to the official count reported by the firm to the regulator.
