Recall Insight

This recall's affected scope, documented in the Recall Profile below, stays within a single-region or limited-distribution footprint. Distribution information was not included in the agency filing, so consumers should assume broad potential exposure until the firm publishes point-of-sale details. Consumers holding this product should act on the agency's documented remedy above rather than relying on general guidance.

Within the same product category the archive holds 6 closely related recalls, 6 from CPSC - clustering in a narrow category often points to a systemic quality-control or supplier issue rather than a one-off defect. Always verify the recall number against the official agency record before acting.

Product description

The recalled products are fluorescent worklights with model number L-2001. The model number is located on the crossbar below the floodlight heads on a white sticker. It is a twin head, green telescoping worklight. All units with manufacturing dates from May 2000 and before are included in this recall. The manufacturing date is located on the same sticker as the model number.

Reason for recall

The worklight's power cord has loose connections, which could result in live wires being exposed. It poses electrocution and shock hazards to consumers. Also, the firm mislabeled the worklight. The product improperly bears the UL mark and is marked "suitable for wet locations."

Remedy, what to do

Consumers should immediately stop using these worklights, and return them to the store where purchased for a free replacement. If light was purchased by mail order, contact the firm on how to receive your free replacement. Known purchasers were notified about this recall.
