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.

    The product, in the report: SlimQ 330W DC+USB C Charger https://slimq.life/products/330w-laptop-charger

    I bought laptop charger from SlimQ - 330W DC+USB C Charger. Link here https://slimq.life/products/330w-laptop-charger

    Yesterday while at my notebook, it started sparking and melting from connector.

    I managed to turn it off, but it would’ve easily start a fire in the house.

    Now the whole house smells like burned chemicals even 24 hours after it happened. I am sure this is not healthy by itself.

    Laptop is [REDACTED].

  2. No one hurt

    Made Aug 30, 2023, sent to the company Sep 1, 2023, published by CPSC Sep 18, 2023

    The product, in the report: SlimQ 240W DC/PD Charger, model F240. The charger is dark gray, approximately 5 x 2.5 x 1.3 inches. It comes with a two-prong outlet attachment with cable, an output cable with a barrel connector on each end, and an assortment of barrel connector adapters.

    I purchased a SlimQ 240W laptop charger, model F240, from Amazon on August 24th, 2023. The charger was delivered on August 26th, 2023, and I began using it that same day. On August 30th, 2023, while using my laptop ([REDACTED]) with this charger for a few hours, I noticed a burning plastic smell. I saw that the charger was bulging and deformed. I immediately disconnected it from the laptop and the outlet. The charger was too hot to touch, hot enough to cause burns. I was not injured; however, the temperature could easily cause injury and has the potential to be a fire hazard.
