As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. First aid

    Made Dec 25, 2019, sent to the company Jan 13, 2020, published by CPSC Feb 4, 2020

    The product, in the report: Lighting Reaction (a game for sale on Amazon and other places)

    A game, Lighting Reaction, which has high reviews on Amazon and states it is “Amazon’s choice” is extremely dangerous. A few of us used it today. It made two of us sick (headaches, rapid heartbeat, general feelings of sickness). These people were both within the recommended age range and do not have pacemakers etc.

    Note that for some individuals, this “toy” might be extremely dangerous, even lethal. It emits an electric shock on a person’s hand which feels pretty similar to accidentally putting one’s finger in an electrical socket.

    It contains some warnings in fine print that: it is not for use for people with epilepsy, a heart condition, or similar related illnesses. It also says, in some of the fine print sections, but not all, that it should not be used by someone pregnant and to keep out of the risk of children.

    We had no idea what we were buying. We thought it had a “shock” similar to the old board game Operation, certainly not something painful or potentially dangerous. Clearly people do not always read fine print, especially not on a toy, which people expect to be safe. Not just that, the fine print isn’t even the same in each spot so someone who actually does read the fine print might miss a crucial warning that applies to them. And if the wrong person uses this item, I believe they could die or be seriously injured.

    Please investigate and remove this game from the US market asap. Please also publish warnings and a mandatory recall with notices so that no one gets seriously hurt or killed by this dangerous product.
