No one hurt Made Jun 13, 2011, published by CPSC Jul 5, 2011
The product, in the report: Rechargeable air blower. This device is used to direct a stream of air through a nozzle or brush attachment to clean computers and other electronics, to be used instead of a disposable can of compressed air. The device contains an integral rechargeable battery.
My WD-40 Turbo Air didn’t blow. I made sure it was fully charged. When I pressed the operating button it clicked but didn’t start up so I slapped it into my palm, and electrical smoke started coming out, even after I released the button. I brought it outside and eventually the smoke cleared and nothing further happened. I reported this incident to WD-40 and they replied that they haven’t made the device for 3 years and I should contact the retailer. (I bought it online.)
I have photos but every time I try to upload them I get to a bad page link and have to re-start.
