Coleman is recalling three flashlight models because their lithium-ion batteries can overheat and cause fires. This affects consumers who own the recalled models and poses a fire risk if used.
The lithium-ion batteries inside these flashlights can overheat, which may lead to fire. This happens because the batteries are not designed to handle the electrical load safely under normal use conditions.
Owners of Coleman CTAC Lithium-Ion Flashlights with model numbers 2000013872, 2000013873, or 2000013874 are affected. Anyone using these flashlights could face fire risk if the batteries overheat.
