What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (burn hazard from wire melting) with actual injury reports documented (two burn injuries among 14 total incident reports). Although not a Class I recall and no fatalities are reported, the combination of a legitimate hazard with confirmed injuries places this at the High threshold.

Plain-English summary

AllPredatorCalls.com Inc. is recalling Wicked Lights-branded ScanPro night hunting headlamps, models Gen 1, Gen 1.5, and Gen 2. The black headlamps feature an adjustable elastic cloth headband, elevation adjustment lock knob, intensity control knob, zoom focus bezel, rubberized halo shield, and built-in LED lights (green, red, white, or single-color).
