The product, in the report: 8 outlet surge protector with 3 phone lines extensions
Three outlets were had plugs in them at the time of the incident.
This surge protector was on a computer table with computer cables attached. It burned a wooden shelf on the computer table. It appears to have burned for a while and self extinguished.
The consumer searched on-line and found a recall (Recall# 10-024), and called the firm: Tel: 800-223-5546. He went through the options and the call was disconnected. The called back and pressed the option for technical support, where he held on the phone for 27 minutes, prior to hanging up, because he was unable to speak with anyone.
The consumer is extremely concerned about the fire hazard, because part of the protector has melted. The consumer estimates that 25% of the product is melted and the entire top is blackened and he believes that some of the internal parts are melted as well.
He estimates that an approximately 18” area of the shelf is burned and there was a lot of soot on the shelf. It seems that plastic materials may have shot out of the surge protector and caused this soot damage.
The consumer removed the power cord for a computer from one of the surge protector outlets and the metal prongs were burned. He did not notice any burn damage to the prongs of the other two devices.
