The product, in the report: Amerell Moon Light
The consumer wanted to express his concerns about the moonlight he purchased as the product began to “snap electrically”. The consumer purchased the product in package of two. The consumer placed the product near the keyboard of his computer. The product is operated by 4 AA batteries. The consumer stated that after using the product for nearly 3 weeks, the consumer noticed that the model was working strangely. The consumer could hear a loud “arching” noise from where his computer was. The consumer figured that it may be his computer and after further inspection he realized the moonlight was making a loud sizzle noise. The consumer figured that the product had batteries burned out. The consumer picked up the product to dispose of the batteries and realized that his right hand was “burning” on the back of his index finger. The consumer then noticed that this sensation was battery acid leaking. The consumer washed his hands with water and baking soda paste. The consumer checked and was absolutely sure the batteries were inserted properly. The consumer has not sought any medical attention. The consumer did not have any problems with the product before the incident. The consumer is a former fire fighter and is not sure what in the product could possibly cause the battery to react in that manner.
The consumer has not called the retailer or the firm. The light has not caused any damage to the consumer’s home no evidence of burning inside of the product. The consumer’s wife heard the same noise a few days prior to the incident.
