The product, in the report: GDealer Digital Meat Thermometer It’s an instant read digital meat thermometer. Per my amazon order history, this is the product page: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0188XZBMC. Note that the product pictured today is NOT the one I ordered. I believe the product pictures, description, etc on the page have changed since I ordered the product in 2016. (The product currently on the page doesn’t use an alkaline AAA battery.) “GDealer” is the only brand name that appears on the device but it also seems to be the name of the seller (“Global Dealer”). I don’t have the packaging anymore and the Amazon page seems to have changed, so I don’t have the UPC or any other info.
I purchased a meat thermometer from Amazon in 2016. It’s powered by an alkaline AAA battery which was included with the product. Last week the battery exploded. It was an actual explosion - I heard the bang two floors up. I didn’t figure out what happened until I came downstairs the next morning. The battery was blown apart and the battery door blown off, and the thermometer itself may have been blown out of a tray it was stored on (not pictured). I don’t believe there was any fire, smoke, etc but I wasn’t in the room when it happened. No injuries. The only damage appears to be a couple of spots on the table where the electrolyte splashed and ate away at the finish (pictured). The thermometer hadn’t been in use the day it happened. It wasn’t near heat, in direct sunlight, etc. The explosion happened in the evening, maybe 7-9pm. The product has worked fine for as long as I’ve had it. I’ve never needed to replace the battery it came with. I still have the thermometer. The battery that exploded is in the garbage but I can hang on to it safely if it’d be useful. The brand name on the battery is “[REDACTED]”. AAA, 1.5v. The thermometer got used maybe monthly or less. I haven’t contacted the seller, mfr, or Amazon about this.
