HeathCo recalls motion-activated outdoor lights due to electrical shock risk from internal wiring. Consumers must stop using and return lights for free replacement.
The internal fixture wiring can energize the entire surface and fittings of the fixture, posing an electrical shock hazard.
HeathCo is recalling multiple motion-activated outdoor lights because faulty wiring can cause electrical shock. This affects porch lighting fixtures that turn on with motion detection. Using these lights poses a risk of shock, so immediate action is needed.
The internal wiring can energize the entire surface and fittings of the fixture, meaning touching any part of the light could cause an electrical shock. This hazard occurs even when the light is not in use, increasing the risk during normal handling.
Homeowners with porch lighting fixtures that turn on with motion detection are most at risk. These lights were sold between 2020 and 2023 and are identified by specific model numbers on the back or underside of the motion sensor.
Check the back of the motion sensor for wall-mounted models or underneath the cover for ceiling-mounted models. The brand name and model number are listed on these labels. The recalled models include specific combinations like 'Portfolio PF-4129-AZ' and 'Secure Home SH-4169-BK'.
Immediately turn off the power switch and stop using the lights to avoid electrical shock.
Contact HeathCo for instructions on returning the light fixture and receiving a free replacement.
Consumers should immediately stop using the lights and turn off the power switch before removing the light from its mounting. Contact the company for instructions on how to return the light fixture and receive a free replacement.
The recalled models include Portfolio PF-4129-AZ, Heath®-Zenith SL-4129-AZ, Secure Home SH-4169-BK, and others listed in the product details.
