The product, in the report: 25 Globe String Lights/Patio Lights
Caller purchased 25 Globe String Lights/Patio Lights at Target June 12th, 2013. She was in the process of removing them from the box the afternoon of June 13th, 2013 when she heard a loud “pop” sound and glass from one of the bulbs went flying.
One piece hit her on the eyelid, another hit on her chest with some pieces hitting as far away as five feet.
When she and her husband looked at the light that exploded they saw that the 3/4 of an inch top portion blew off in one piece with the remaining 3/4 of an inch broke and flew out in tiny shards of glass.
The manufacturer couldn’t be located but the callers did contact the retailer who owns the brand then filed a report with them.
They are reporting this incident as a severe safety issue with the thought that if their small children had been in the room they could have been injured or the shard that hit the caller’s eyelid could very easily have gone into her eye.
