Hurt, no treatment Made Nov 1, 2012, sent to the company Nov 21, 2012, published by CPSC Dec 6, 2012
The product, in the report: It is a toy flashlight that has 6 clear caps with different Halloween pictures that fin over the lens end of the light . These will project the images in shadow form when the light is aimed ex: at a wall. The disks have pictures of a monster, ghost, skull, cat, bat and jack-o-lantern. It requires 2 AA batteries to work.
I recently purchased a Halloween mini projection light from Five Below (distributed by :Atico International USA, Inc. ). On Halloween night upon placing the batteries into the light and turning it on it immediately began to get hot and the back end of the light melted. Luckily I was still holding it when this happened and not my 5 year old son whom the light was purchased for. I was not injured other than my hand turning a little red, but if a child had been holding it there was the potential for burning. I still have the light and accessories should you need photos or the light itself to investigate the matter. I have also sent emails to both Five Below and to Atico International.
