How badly anyone was hurt

  • No one hurt 1 CPSC: Incident, No Injury

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 24, 2012, sent to the company Jun 1, 2012, published by CPSC Jun 15, 2012

    The product, in the report: Currie 24 Volt Electric Bike Battery Pack Origin: China SIN: B002RR7RD2 Item model number: BA-PK24-005

    I have a Currie Electric bike, which comes from the manufacturer with a 24 volt SLA battery pack. Specs on the battery pack are these: Origin: China ASIN: B002RR7RD2 Item model number: BA-PK24-005

    I bought this bike + battery at Toys R Us.

    This battery isn’t that old and looks in good condition. There are no safety mechanism/devices on it from what I can tell. It is sealed in a non-consumer repairable plastic housing, charged with an external charger.

    I went into my garage and smelled a burning smell. I tracked it down to this battery pack, which has now partially melted. If I had been away or otherwise not detected it, I am concerned it would’ve caught on fire, potentially burning my house down.

    So I wish to report this should others experience something similar.
