LocknCharge has recalled about 550 iQ10 charging stations because a defective USB hub inside can cause an electrical shock. These metal cube-shaped stations, used to store and charge up to 10 tablets, were sold primarily to schools and government agencies between February and May 2015. One woman in Australia has already reported receiving an electrical shock from one of these units. Consumers should stop using the stations immediately and contact LocknCharge for a free replacement hub and installation instructions.
A fault in the internal USB charging hub can allow electricity to transfer to the exterior of the station or the consumer. This poses a serious risk of electrical shock to anyone touching the device while it is plugged into a power source.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled charging stations and contact LocknCharge Technologies for a free replacement charging hub and instructions for replacing the charging hub.
