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. No one hurt

    Made May 3, 2017, sent to the company Jul 12, 2017, published by CPSC Jul 26, 2017

    The product, in the report: This was the stock phone charger adapter and cable that shipped with the phone. The actual damage was to the adapter.

    Normally I will charge my cell phone completely in the evening, and unplug it overnight (so the battery doesn’t get overcharged). In the morning while getting ready, I will “top off” the charge so the phone is at 100% when I leave.

    While traveling in March, I had charged my phone fully in the evening, and in the morning when I went to top it off, I noticed that there was significant melting to the power adapter. As this was an obvious fire hazard, I did not attempt to connect and charge the phone in the morning.

    I attempted to contact LG the next morning, and as this has still not been resolved (more than a month later) am I bringing it to the CPSC.

    The phone was less than a month old at the time of incident and there were no signs of damage to the charger when I used it the night before (when the incident occurred).

    I double checked the voltages on the adapter (as I was traveling) before using it, and it does indeed say it can tolerate 110 - 240v.
