Hurt, no treatment Made Dec 26, 2017, sent to the company Jan 17, 2018, published by CPSC Feb 1, 2018
The product, in the report: LED WORK LIGHT, BATTERY POWERED.
I received a DEFIANT portable led light. When I put the batteries in it cam on and blinded me. I saw spots for 5 minutes. This is a danger to small children and the unsuspecting. I believe it’s too strong. It’s like looking at the sun. This should be regulated.
