Goal Zero has recalled approximately 10,000 Sherpa brand 50 and 120 rechargeable battery packs because they can overcharge and overheat. There have been three reports of property damage, including one fire, and one consumer reported becoming ill from breathing fumes. These silver and black lithium-ion packs were sold at REI, sporting goods stores, Amazon.com, and GoalZero.com between March 2010 and November 2013. Consumers should immediately stop using these packs and contact Goal Zero for a free replacement.
The battery packs can overcharge, bulge, and melt their enclosure. This creates a fire hazard and a risk of property damage or injury from inhaling toxic fumes if the battery overheats.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled battery packs and contact Goal Zero for a free replacement battery pack.
