CPSC Announces Recall of T400 Battery Chargers After Fire Reports

CPSC announced a recall of T400 battery chargers sold under the HTRC and Haisito names because the chargers can ignite or cause a connected battery to ignite. The notice covers about 4,800 units and instructs consumers to stop use and contact the firm for a refund process.

Reported fire and injury data

CPSC states that the manufacturer received 33 reports of fires and explosions. The notice also lists three reports involving burn or smoke-inhalation injuries and 12 property-damage reports totaling $224,000.

The remedy defined by the recall

Consumers are directed to stop using the chargers and contact the manufacturer for return and refund instructions. The official recall page should remain the authority for current remedy details.

Design and use form one risk chain

The notice says the charger can ignite or cause a connected battery to ignite, showing why charging safety involves both the power source and the attached battery. The recall does not establish that all chargers of similar appearance share the defect.
