The text below is quoted from the CPSC notice word for word.
- What was recalled
- This recall involves December Home branded candelabra style incandescent replacement light bulbs. The light bulbs have a metallic threaded base and glass shell. December Home is printed on the product packaging. They were sold in packages of one, two or three light bulbs.
- The hazard
- Some packages of the light bulbs can include 3V bulbs intended for battery powered fixtures instead of the 120V versions as labeled. If a 3V bulb is used in a 120V fixture, it can burst, posing a laceration hazard to consumers.
- Injuries
- The firm has received one report of an incident involving a 3V bulb used in a 120V fixture resulting in a "short out" in the fixture. No injuries have been reported.
- The remedy
- Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled light bulbs and return them to Meijer for a full refund.
