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 serious or fatal electrocution, but the source explicitly states that no injuries have been reported, fitting the rubric for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Winner Products, Inc. is recalling approximately 3,200 Emergency Lite 3-in-1 automatic night-lights, model number 334N, in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The white plastic nightlight measures 5.5 inches high by 3.25 inches wide and features an opaque half-cylinder front with the words "EMERGENCY LITE 3-IN-1 ... HomeSafe" at the bottom. It includes an on/off/auto switch, a rechargeable battery, and can be used as a hand-held flashlight.

The recall is due to a hazard where the unit can break away from the back cover while it is still plugged in, exposing live conductors. This condition could seriously or fatally shock consumers. Winner Products, Inc. is aware of one complaint regarding this night-light, but neither CPSC nor the company is aware of any injuries involving the product.

The lights were sold for between $10 and $15 through home supply stores such as Fedco and Home Depot nationwide from January through May 5, 1995. Consumers who purchased the Emergency Lite 3-in-1 should stop using it immediately and call (800) 669-0415. Winner Products, Inc. will send packaging with postage pre-paid to ship the product back and will replace returned lights free of charge.
