Jackco Transnational is recalling approximately 5,000 ZETA Pocket Jump Starter Deluxe Sets because the white lithium-ion battery pack can overheat, split apart, and melt its enclosure. The company has received 487 reports of battery failure and two reports of fires resulting in property damage. These battery packs, sold at Amazon.com and other retailers between July 2014 and January 2015, were used to jump start vehicles and charge mobile electronics. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled battery packs and contact the manufacturer for a refund of $110 to $140.
The internal lithium-ion battery can overheat during use or charging, causing the plastic casing to melt or split open, which creates a significant risk of fire and property damage.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Pocket Jump Starter and contact Jackco Transnational for instructions on how to dispose of the product and how to obtain a refund for the purchase price. Consumers without a receipt will receive $110.
