The product, in the report: Progress Lighting A flush Mount LED light with a bronze base and a glass glove covering Model P3591-2030K9

We installed a new flush mounted ceiling like a year to 2 years ago. It is an LED light, so you do not change the lightbulbs. Last week I had just been standing under it and walked away and I heard a loud crash. I walked over to where I hear the sound and there was glass everywhere! It is thick glass too, so it would have been heavy if it fell on someone’s head. It is on a high delivering, so it’s never used. After sweeping several times and vacuuming I still got a shard of glass in my foot. Thankfully I was able to remove it.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(11/26/2021) PROGRESS LIGHTING CO: Progress Lighting is a brand of Hubbell Incorporated. Hubbell Incorporated takes product safety issues very seriously and thoroughly investigates each report made to the CPSC or to our Company. Our records indicate that the Progress Lighting brand P3591-2030K9 luminaire has a good safety record. Reading through CPSC report 20211108-2E36D-2147358877, the subject of this response, we note that the customer stated that the product performed for approximately 2 years without performance issues and customer assumed no maintenance or requirement for general inspection. LED based lighting products have excellent lighting life performance and have almost eliminated light source failure so often experienced in fixtures using typical fluorescent and incandescent sources. Excellent light source life performance does not eliminate the need for fixture maintenance or monitoring where failure or damage may result due to concerns of installation, excessive vibration, incidental impact or functional use. Progress Lighting strongly encourages customers to monitor the performance of their installed lighting products and if having safety concerns or product problems, to contact the Progress Lighting Customer Service group directly by calling 800-446-9107. Our staff will provide product problem guidance and appropriate repair or replacement according to our standard warranty.

While standing over the sink, one of the globes in the fixture exploded over my head. The fixture is approximately 6” taller than my reach, so no way could I have bumped it. The lightbulb is still in the fixture but the globe shattered all over the vanity.
As I cleaned up the glass in the sink, I noticed a yellow powder residue along with the glass. I have pictures of the shattered glass, powder, and entire fixture post explosion on my cell phone.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(8/4/2017) PROGRESS LIGHTING CO: Progress Lighting (“Progress”) is a brand of Hubbell Lighting, Inc. Progress takes product safety issues seriously and thoroughly investigates each report made to the CPSC or to our Company.
We determined that this report pertains to the Progress Lighting P2812-20WB luminaire, a three-lamp wall unit in the “Academy” family of lavatory luminaires, and has been in commerce since 2012 with an excellent service and quality record. Upon receiving this report, Progress reviewed available product history, including warranty claims, customer communications, drawings, bills of material, and specification sheets. The Progress Warranty/Technical Services has also reviewed the customer’s photographs of the reported failure.
Our review indicated that this reported glass globe failure is the second such reported failure out of a total of 20,300 globes produced to date. Our analysis of these failures suggests that shipping damage was not visible or may have gone unnoticed until the glass failed after installation and operation. Our records indicate that all Academy globes have been produced by one supplier and that approximately 100-130 replacement globes are sent to customers each year. Each replacement transaction is coded for failure type, and all replacements for this globe have been coded for shipment damage, meaning that the original globes were damaged upon arrival.
The customer also reported a yellow powder residue amid the broken glass. We have examined other Academy umber globes and even broken some, but have not observed any yellow powder. We note that such residue might have come from a source other than the globe, such as dust or material on the customer’s countertop.
Progress Lighting Warranty/Technical Services group has since provided a replacement product and resolved the concern. In addition, as standard practice, the Progress Warranty and Technical Service team continues to monitor any reported performance issues affecting this product family.
We encourage customers with product problems to contact the Progress Lighting Warranty/Technical Services group directly by calling 864-678-1385. Our staff will provide product problem guidance and repair or replacement according to our standard warranty.

The product, in the report: Ceiling lamps - fixture and lamp

The submitter revised report to include:
Caller stated that approximately one day after replacing a kitchen ceiling fluorescent lamp {PLSP26E/27K-26W 4-pin Spiral Fluorescent Lamp),while working at the kitchen island below this lamp, the lamp fell out of the socket and exploded right next to the caller when it hit the hard surface of the island.The caller then installed a second new lamp in the same socket {taking extra care to firmly push the lamp in place) and another day or so later,while the caller was entering the kitchen, this second new lamp also fell from the socket,exploding broken glass particles and dust in approximately a 7ft radius area. He stated that the lamp is held in place solely by 2 metal tabs which pinch in on the base of the lamp. In his opinion,the design flaw is that if either of these 2 tabs doesn’t properly grip an installed lamp,the lamp can easily fall out of the socket and presents a risk to the health and safety of anybody in the vicinity of the falling lamp.
In January,2016,the manufacturer of the lamp fixture was contacted and a replacement can light assembly was sent to him.
Caller feels that this can light fixture is a safety hazard (by design) and should be reported.
[REDACTED] 2/20/2016
The submitter also indicated he sustained an injury. The submitter sated he had possible glass dust in one eye and rinsed the eye with lubricating eye drops.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(4/5/2016) PROGRESS LIGHTING CO: Progress Lighting is a brand of Hubbell Lighting Inc. Hubbell Lighting takes product safety issues very seriously and thoroughly investigates each report made to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”) or to our Company. This is a second response made to a revised version of 20160115-5C847-1546185, and is intended to supplement the Company’s initial response on March 11, 2016. The revised report, dated March 14, 2016, clarifies confusion in the initial report, and clearly identifies the product catalogue number as P83-26ICAT, a 6” Compact Fluorescent, new construction, Air-tight, IC, 26 watt “recessed can” luminaire, the product we addressed in our initial response. As stated in the Company’s initial response, our records indicate that the Progress Lighting P83-26ICAT luminaire, which has been in commerce since 2004, has an excellent service and safety record. We reviewed available history from our files, including warranty claims, customer communications files, drawings, bills of material, and specification sheets. These files showed 17 warranty claims, most of which were not product-performance specific, but rather related to the shipment of wrong products. We found no records or reference to any lamp rupture in this product history’s 11+ year history. According to the revised report, the incident occurred on December 12, 2015, and in January 2016, the customer contacted Hubbell Lighting and/or Progress Lighting staff, who sent a complete replacement fixture housing. The customer then contacted the CPSC on January 15, 2016. We have searched our records and have located one order, generated in mid-December 2015, for one P83-26ICAT, but found no record of any contact with our staff relating to any such incident, or to any lamp rupture involving this product. We have confirmed that this fixture order was related to the incident described in the revised report by comparing the submitter’s name and address in the revised report to the contact information included in the December 2015 order in our files. With the limited product detail of the initial and revised reports, we were unable to determine the nature of the reported flaw. In order to better understand the reported incident and in light of our commitment to the safety of our products, we contacted the submitter for additional information about the failure and the involved product.
Based on this further contact, we now understand that the subject P83-26ICAT had been installed in the submitter’s home kitchen and operated properly for 8 years. By the submitter’s admission, he had performed multiple lamp changes on this fixture without incident. He noted that the lamp involved in the reported incident had been a replacement for a lamp that had operated satisfactorily for some time and had to be removed as it reached end of life. This lamp reportedly fell from the socket as described in the revised report.
A second replacement lamp, also obtained by the submitter, likewise reportedly fell from the socket in a similar fashion. According to the submitter, only after this second incident did he examine the socket and observe that it was deformed or had been damaged. The submitter acknowledged that he had difficulty removing the lamps from the socket.
By submitter’s comments, it appears that the submitter damaged the socket while replacing the lamp, so that replacement lamps were not securely in place. Moreover, we understand that the lamp did not explode in either incident. Rather, the fixture was installed in the ceiling 6 ½ feet above the submitter’s kitchen island counter, and the lamp shattered upon hitting the hard counter top. Company representatives explained how an electrician could use parts from the provided replacement fixture to return the submitter’s installed unit to proper function.
Based on our technical review and product history data, the reported incident appears to be a result of isolated, atypical consumer-caused damage to a particular fixture that is not indicative of a larger design, manufacturing, or labeling defect. As always, we encourage customers with product problems to contact the Progress Lighting Warranty/Technical Services group directly by calling 864-678-1385. Our staff will provide product problem guidance and repair or replacement according to our standard warranty.

Hubbell Lighting takes product safety issues very seriously and thoroughly investigates each report made to the CPSC or to our Company. Our records indicate that the Progress Lighting brand P3688-09 luminaire has a good safety record.
Reviewing warranty service records, we found that on April 22, 2015, this customer ([REDACTED]) alerted us of an incident involving a recently purchased product by contacting the Progress Lighting Warranty/Technical Services group, and on the same day, initiated the Saferproducts.gov incident report.

However, the customer has confirmed that the replacement lens has been installed and working properly.
We encourage customers with product problems to contact the Progress Lighting Warranty/Technical Services group directly by calling 864-678-1385. Our staff will provide product problem guidance and repair or replacement according to our standard warranty.

The product, in the report: Progress Lighting 300W-elec transformer #P8776-09 and 6’ Flex track w/ support stems # P6227-09

I’m attaching a review I posted on Amazon regarding the Progress Lighting 300W transformer and Illuma Flex track system that describes the issue we had w/ this product. I also have some pictures of the burned area on the track that I can send to you at your request. Thanks, Bought this system w/ the supposedly 300W transformers in brushed nickel and installed in house in March of 2011. The lighting systems were quite expensive and when they arrived we were surprised at how cheap the whole system looked (a lot of cheap plastic and didn’t seem very well made). (We actually have 3 of them that we ordered at the same time to install in our kitchen/family room area-2 w/ spot lights and one w/ the wine bottle pendant lights/globes). Within 4 months of installation, one of the flex track units started intermittently turning off and on. The system was not overloaded if it was in fact a 300W transformer like we paid for and as the unit was labeled. (We had 6, 50w bulbs w/ the suspension arms that we purchased all at the same time from Progress Lighting as recommended=300w total). Now I’m finding out that the transformer that was advertised and sold as 300W was actually probably only 250W even though it was labeled as a 300W. (Read other person’s review under the 300W Progress Lighting transformer). I was also told by Customer service at Progress Lighting today that they only carry a 250W transformer now, but she couldn’t tell me when they discontinued the “300W” that we paid extra for and trusted it to power 6, 50W bulbs. This unit completely quit working and when we took down the flex track, we discovered that it was completely “burned-out” where the track connects to the transformer and the plastic connectors on the transformer were melted! We are so lucky that our house didn’t burn down and that no one was injured or killed! Progress Lighting sent us another transformer and is in the process of sending us another flex track to replace the “burned-up” one, and recommended that we only us max of 250w instead of the 300w that it was rated. Honestly, we are scared of this system now and thinking of replacing all of them w/ something different! The wine bottle pendants look nice and we haven’t had a problem yet w/ them probably b/c we only have 250W (5 hanging pendants) on this flex track. Flex track is a great idea, but now I’m scared of this system. Wanted to insert a picture of the burnt flex track w/ this review, but didn’t see where to attach it.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(1/23/2012) PROGRESS LIGHTING CO: Hubbell Lighting takes product safety issues very seriously and thoroughly investigates each report made to the CPSC or to our Company. The Progress Lighting brand products identified in this report (P8776-09 & P6227-09) have very good safety records. Our investigation of this incident reveals that while the product failed prematurely, the failure was in a contained and safe manner, consistent with the safety specifications reflected in the product’s design. Near the time of the reported failure, the transformer in the P8776-09 product line was upgraded to a new electronic version that we found to be longer-lasting. As part of our normal warranty process, failed P8776-09 transformer units may be replaced at no charge with the new electronic version.
The customer submitting this report purchased the product and obtained service from ProgressLightingOutlet.com, which is a third party that is neither part of nor affiliated with Progress Lighting or Hubbell Lighting Inc.
We encourage customers with product problems to provide additional information directly to the Progress Lighting Warranty/Technical Services group by calling 864-678-1385. They will provide product problem guidance and repair or replacement according to our standard warranty.
