AliExpress is recalling about 390 units of RGB-branded LED strip lights because the battery compartment allows children easy access to hazardous button cell batteries. These color-changing, dimmable lights were sold in various colors including white, blue, and red and measure about 0.4 inches long. Consumers should stop using the lights immediately and contact AliExpress for a full refund after destroying the product.
The recalled lights violate federal safety regulations for products with coin batteries because they do not have a secure battery compartment or the required safety warnings. If children swallow these lithium batteries, they can suffer from serious internal chemical burns or death in as little as two hours. No incidents or injuries have been reported.
Consumers should stop using the recalled LED strip lights immediately and contact AliExpress to receive a full refund. Consumers should destroy the lights by cutting them in half and disposing of them. Consumers must send a photo of the destroyed lights to us_product_recall@aliexpress.com or by replying to the recall email sent by AliExpress. AliExpress is contacting all known purchasers directly. Note: Button cell and coin batteries are hazardous. Batteries should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures.
