Hurt, no treatment Made Oct 10, 2023, sent to the company Oct 12, 2023, published by CPSC Oct 26, 2023
The product, in the report: Bayco bulb changing kit. Yellow in color. Kit includes yellow extension pole, small basket, large basket and suction cup Item-LBC-600
First: there are no directions so the consumer must [REDACTED] or figure it out themselves, how to operate this tool.. Second: the product comes with two different baskets and one suction cup adapter. I was changing recessed flood lights in my 20 foot ceilings, while using a ladder to extend the reach. I attempted to use the two different size baskets - the first one was too small; the second fit; however, there was not enough tension to grab and twist the bulb. Therefore, the only option was the suction cup adapter. So I applied the suction cup to the bottom of the light bulb and began to twist counter clockwise to unscrew the bulb. Two issues occurred: 1) the extension portion of the pole began to come loose due to the issues that you turn the poles counter clockwise to loosen and retract it. 2) The issue is the suction cup comes loose as well - so you are forced to apply upwards pressure as you’re unscrewing it. The problem grew worse as the suction cup began sliding around on the bulb even while the bulb was being unscrewed - there was literally no suction to the bulb. Once the bulb is unscrewed, there still is very little suction to the bulb. This causes the bulb to be unstable on the end of the pole once it’s out of the fixture. The bulb then fell as soon as it was free of the socket. The first falling bulb caused me to flinch since I was standing on the ladder underneath it. This then caused me to fall off the ladder. Fortunately, I just received a bruise. I then was forced to wear my motorcycle helmet on the remaining bulbs to keep the bulbs that I was removing and bulbs I was inserting- from striking me on the head as they fell. I was finally able to replace the three high ceiling bulbs with this dangerous tool. I ended up breaking 4 bulbs in the process.
