The product, in the report: Black extension cord/ strip has 2 usb a ports and 2 usb c ports

I use extension cords next to my bed. Always have just to keep chargers close by. This one was bought now even 6 months ago and failed. CYBER POWER EXTENSION CORD/strip failed last night and almost caught fire while my phone was being charged. It melted its ports, some of the body and made a burn mark on my bed. I think I am lucky it did not catch fire

The company’s comments, in its own words

(7/1/2026) CYBERPOWER SYSTEMS USA INC: CyberPower’s investigation is limited to the information contained in the CPSC report, as CyberPower lacks information indicating any similar incident occurred, and the customer information is not included in the report. CyberPower has not had the opportunity to inspect the allegedly damaged unit, confirm its manufacture by CyberPower, obtain photographs, gather additional details regarding the circumstances of the incident, or identify the equipment connected to the product at the time of the reported event. Based on the limited information currently available, CyberPower cannot substantiate the safety-related allegations regarding the P203UCBK. The report states that the consumer “uses extension cords next to my bed.” This would imply that more than one extension cord was being utilized given the plural “cords.” The report goes on that the “strip failed last night and almost caught fire while my phone was being charged. It melted its ports, some of the body and made a burn mark on my bed.” The report contained a single blurry image from which CyberPower cannot determine whether its product is involved as contrasted with some other manufacturer, what connected equipment is involved, or any root cause of any thermal incident. The image does, however, seem to depict numerous black extension or other cords which would fit the consumers description of using multiple “extension cords.” But, without examination of the product and the connected devices, CyberPower cannot determine the cause of the reported damage or verify that the power strip was the source of the alleged failure. The condition, quality, and safety of any connected equipment, charging accessories, cables, adapters, or batteries may be relevant factors in assessing the incident. Additionally, CyberPower’s surge products are not designed to be “daisy chained” and used in conjunction with other power strips or extension cords, and instead, are designed to be used and directly plugged into an outlet. Given the language of the report about multiple “extension cords” and the customer’s photograph seemingly depicting those multiple extension cords, there may be consumer negligence in misuse of the product in violation of the user manual and associated warnings. Further, without examining the connected equipment, understanding what the source of a thermal incident could be is not possible. The lone photograph, while blurry, appears to depict some kind of black marks around a USB-C charging port. However, it is unclear from this photo and without further examination if this is showing some kind of evidence of a thermal incident internal to the unit, or external to the unit, for example, caused by whatever was plugged into the product. CyberPower products are designed and manufactured using quality components and are tested in accordance with applicable UL safety standards and certification requirements, which would include specific testing to avoid thermal incidents alike what is alleged in the report. But the reliability and safety of third-party charging devices, batteries, and other electrical accessories that might be plugged into a CyberPower product can be influenced by the quality of materials, components, and manufacturing processes used in their production. Products manufactured using lower-grade materials, less stringent quality controls, poor designs, or unverified production practices may present an increased risk of overheating, electrical failure, inconsistent performance, or reduced service life. In contrast, products produced under established quality management systems and subjected to recognized safety testing and certification protocols, like CyberPower’s products, are generally more likely to provide reliable and safe operation, which would be the case with the P203UCBK. Because neither the P203UCBK nor the connected devices have been made available for evaluation, and because CyberPower has received no additional information from the customer beyond the statements contained in the CPSC report, CyberPower is unable to determine the root cause of the alleged incident or substantiate the safety claims asserted in the report.
