As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. Hurt, care not known

    Made Apr 19, 2017, sent to the company Nov 15, 2017, published by CPSC May 10, 2017

    The product, in the report: USB charger 5 port

    When plugging in the phone to the USB charger, the charger gets very hot to touch and a burning smell is coming from the unit.

    I purchased the unit in Dec 2014.

    About 2 months ago, I plugged it in and it got hot, so I stopped using it.

    I then checked it again on 4/19/2017 and again it got hot and gave off a plastic burning smell.

    The unit is LEpower 5 port USB charger model number: YC-PE0508000H. Color is white.

    here is the link from Amazon where I bought the unit.

    On the website there is another person who gave the item a one star because the unit gave his wife a shock and the cord melted off.
