Anticimex is recalling about 2,750 SMART Connect Mini Devices, which are communication hubs for digital pest control systems. The device's power supply can overheat during charging, causing the plastic casing to potentially fly off and posing both fire and injury hazards. These devices were installed by licensed technicians as part of a service monitoring program between March 2020 and October 2020. Anticimex is offering a free replacement and installation for all affected units.
The internal voltage regulator can fail, leading to battery cell failure and overheating that may cause the plastic enclosure to forcefully detach or catch fire. One report of this failure has occurred at an Anticimex facility, though no consumer injuries have been reported.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled devices and should not unplug their installed devices until they are contacted by Anticimex to schedule a removal appointment and provide further instructions. The replacement and installation of the new device will be free of charge. Anticimex is directly contacting all known purchasers.
