    The product, in the report: battery recharging station small black with some small metallic parts mainly constructed from plastic

    had purchased a rayovac battery charging station and rechargeable batteries about 4-10 months ago so we could have aaa & aa batteries for our other electronic devices such as remotes and wireless computer mouse and keyboard and some toys. this product burst into flames at 3:45 am and scorched the wall and sent 2 aa & 2 aaa batteries popping out of it after it melted the post for plugging it in to melt off the plastic base. it left a scorched electrical wall plug in partly melted and burnt and a foul smell that took until around 5 pm central time to dissipate. i have a [REDACTED] charging station that is similar that i have had longer and have hod no problems with it, the construction between the 2 are very different.
