  1. No one hurt

    Made Sep 22, 2023, sent to the company Sep 26, 2023, published by CPSC Oct 11, 2023

    The product, in the report: https://dadbodsummer.us/products/dadbod-summer-water-guns The product was a Dadbod Summer “Dad Cannon” in pink. It was never disclosed that the product was shipping from China direct, with chinese labeling, and no US listings on the box. The Fire department disposed of the item so I do not physically have it anymore.

    I was using a powered water gun from a company called Dadbod Summer. We were using it normally and the product was just over a month old. When pulling the trigger to power the squirt gun, the trigger malfunctioned and the electronics caught on fire. It got hot and started smoking. THe plastic started melting causing a fire alarm to go off, and luckily we work at a Concert venue where there was emergency workers to assist. They disposed of the toy. I reached out to the comapny, and they stated their boiler plate response of its passed the 7 day report window and 30 day money back period, and never acknowledged the safety concern for a childs toy! I was using the product, and again under normal and expected operating proceedures.
