IcyBreeze Cooling is recalling about 22,600 IcyBreeze Buddy portable misting fans because the device's battery can overheat and catch fire while charging. These battery-operated fans feature a 1.5-liter water tank and were sold in slate blue, gray, and seafoam colors at Amazon.com and IcyBreeze.com from November 2023 through August 2024. The firm has received seven reports of the fans overheating, including two instances where the product caught fire, though no injuries have been reported. Consumers should stop using the fan immediately and participate in the recall to receive a $150 credit toward a new purchase.
The fan can overheat during the charging process, leading to the internal lithium-ion battery igniting. This poses a serious fire hazard that has already resulted in two reported fires.
