Lester Electrical is recalling about 19,000 Links Series battery chargers used with golf carts because the internal control board can fail and overheat. There have been 12 reports of control boards overheating or burning, although no injuries have been reported yet. These chargers are black or aluminum and were sold through Lester Electrical, various distributors, and online at GolfCartGarage.com between July 2014 and November 2016 for approximately $400. Consumers should stop using the charger and contact the manufacturer for a free replacement control board or repair.
The charger's control board can malfunction and overheat during use. This creates a significant risk of the unit catching fire or causing burns to anyone handling the device or nearby surfaces.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled chargers and contact Lester Electrical to receive a free replacement control board or schedule a free repair.
