Plain-English summary

Skylight is recalling Series I power adapters sold with its digital photo frames. The recall involves approximately 65,000 units sold in the United States and about 159 units sold in Canada. The adapters are black with a circular indentation on the side and have UPC code 679113611535 on the packaging. They were sold online at www.skylightframe.com and Amazon.com, and in Von Maur stores nationwide from April 2018 through March 2019 for about $160 with the digital photo frame.
