The product, in the report: Discovery Art Projector--projects on walls and ceilings. This set came with 6 markers and 10 reusable discs.
I left a box with a toy art projector outside for a neighbor to pick up for her child. A short while later, I opened my front door and smelled something similar to burned rubber. I looked at the bag with the toy and there literally was smoke coming out of the bag. The plastic on the on the toy began to melt and smoke. The temperature where I am in is 80 degrees today. It is very worrisome that a children’s toy will do that.

No one hurt Made Nov 3, 2016, sent to the company Nov 15, 2016, published by CPSC Nov 30, 2016
The product, in the report: Discovery Kids Wall and Ceiling Art Projector. Enlarges and projects drawings up to 20x in size.
We bought he Discovery Kids Wall and Ceiling Art Projector as a gift for our 7-year-old daughter. The projector calls for four AA batteries to be inserted. The batteries do not fit securely in the battery holder. They are loose. So because there is space between the battery ends and the metal plate and coils, electricity arcs and Sparks. We noticed the sparks and removed the batteries. But this is clearly a fire hazard.
