  1. No one hurt

    Made Jan 14, 2017, sent to the company Feb 1, 2017, published by CPSC Feb 15, 2017

    The product, in the report: Alarm Clock

    Staying at Doubletree hotel. Alarm clock in the room made a POP noise and then started smoking, with noise getting louder and appeared to be rapidly progressing into a fire (if the clock is replugged in, I have no doubt that it would be on fire in under a minute). Fortunately, my wife and I were awake, and I was able to unplug within 3-4 seconds. Room smelled like burnt plastic. Appears to be the adapter that failed as there are melted plastic spots on the adapter. Building engineer tested/confirmed soon afterwards that the power outlets were fine.

    Device is labeled as iHome model HT160, Service Number HT160-A-A. Manufactured and Serviced by HTI Industries LLC, 12/2015 www.hoteltech.com

    Adapter states that it conforms to UL Std 60065, and certified to CSA standard C22.2 No. 60065.

    Clock turned in to hotel staff. I retained photos and voice recording of conversation with hotel staff.

    We just stayed in a Hilton hotel that also uses the same alarm clock - probably used by all Hilton hotels. I’m a fairly regular guest at Hilton family hotels... these are relatively new alarm clocks.
