The product, in the report: UPS (Uniterruptible Power Supply) Computer power back up Model Pro1350S
The product is designed to kick in, when it senses a power loss.
The consumer started to print something and he heard sparks and saw flames inside the unit. The consumer tried to turn it off, but it took a few seconds, because he had to hold the button down. Within a few seconds, he unplugged the unit from the wall outlet and the flames died out fairly quickly.
This was a replacement, send directly from the manufacturer, for a product that failed, but did not present a fire hazard.
