KC Imports and Exports Recalls Mini Laser Pointer Keychains Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Battery Ingestion; Violate Mandatory Standard for Consumer Products with Button Cell Batteries
Reviewed and published by MPB Safety Desk
Hazard
The Mini Laser Pointer Keychains violate the mandatory safety standard for consumer products with button cell and coin batteries because the button batteries can be accessed easily by children, posing an ingestion hazard. Additionally, the packaging and product do not have the warnings required under Reese's Law. When button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death.
What parents need to know
This recall involves Mini Laser Pointer Keychains, small novelty items sold individually and in cases, available in several colors. They are designed to attach to keys or bags and include a small laser light along with a button cell battery inside.
The keychains are being recalled because the battery compartment can be opened easily by children, and the product does not include the safety warnings now required for items with button cell or coin batteries. If a child is able to access and swallow one of these batteries, it can cause serious internal injuries, chemical burns, or death.
Parents and caregivers who have one of these keychains should stop letting anyone use it right away. To get a refund, the battery and product should be thrown away, and a photo of the discarded item should be emailed to the company at the address provided elsewhere on this recall notice. Because button cell batteries are hazardous on their own, they should be disposed of or recycled according to local hazardous waste guidelines rather than placed in regular household trash.
If you have this product in your home, keep it out of reach of children until it has been disposed of following these steps. Taking care with battery disposal not only completes the refund process but also helps prevent an ingestion hazard for any child in the household.
