Recalls

Wires have melted. Heads have burned. So, about 12,000 hunter’s headlamps got recalled

A lamp on the head meant to help hunters shoot animals might burn their heads instead. That’s why AllPredatorcalls.com recalled about 12,000 Wicked Lights ScanPro Night Hunting Headlamps.

As the recall notice by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission explained, “A short in the wire on the light can cause the wire to heat up and melt, posing a burn hazard.”

The alert says Allpredatorcalls.com “has received 14 reports of the wire heating up and melting, including two burn injuries to the hunters.”
