No one hurt Made Oct 14, 2015, sent to the company Oct 22, 2015, published by CPSC Nov 13, 2015
The product, in the report: Product Name: Shooting Ghost Game with Laser Gun An electronic Halloween Decoration/Toy. A “Ghost” body (a white sheet with electronics/lights/sounds) mounted on a circular white base containing an electric motor. The “Ghost” body is mounted on the base with connecting sticks; the base spins/moves on a flat surface with lights/sounds. The product also contains a “Laser Gun” which has lights/sounds. The “Laser Gun” is “shot” at the “ghost” which causes additional lights/sounds/actions. The “Laser Gun” and “Ghost” base use AA Alkaline Batteries
AA batteries were inserted into the “Laser Gun” included with the product. The AA batteries are the correct voltage, were brand new, non-rechargable, and inserted in the correct direction.
The “Laser Gun” immediately activated after closing/securing the battery compartment with lights and sounds activating.
The “Laser Gun” was then turned off according to instructions; holding the trigger for two seconds.
The “Laser Gun” was placed on an empty table for approximately five minutes. After picking up the “Laser Gun”, I immediately felt heat coming from the battery compartment. I removed all batteries and felt a moderate amount of heat from one battery. All batteries were removed, the “Laser Gun” battery compartment cooled off, and a new set of three batteries was inserted.
After inserting the and securing the battery hatch, I checked the “Laser Gun” battery compartment for heat again.
This time, the heat was so intense, it slightly burned the top of my index finger. I immediately removed all batteries from the “Laser Gun”.
The heat appears to be generated by a spring/metal contact connected by a wire which leads to the interior of the “Laser Gun”. When the battery compartment is closed, it appears that the spring and metal contact meet; neither the spring or metal contact are touching an actual battery. The three batteries in the “Laser Gun” have their own individual metal springs and contacts.
