How badly anyone was hurt

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 Jan 23, 2021, sent to the company Feb 19, 2021, published by CPSC Mar 5, 2021

    The product, in the report: ResQlink Beacon Model PLB-425 PLB used in emergency to help emergency services find you. The PLB is made by ACR

    I am using an ACR Resqlink beacon that is brand new. I put the belt clip on the back of the unit. When I went to pull the clip off the back of the unit with the provided rope my finger got slashed and it left a scar. I have been unable to get the company to call me back or email me. I have left messages.
