LG Energy Solution Michigan is recalling about 11,500 Model RESU 10H lithium-ion home energy storage batteries that were installed with residential solar panel systems. These batteries can overheat, posing a risk of fire and the emission of harmful smoke. There has been one report of a battery smoking and catching fire, which resulted in property damage, though no injuries have been reported. LG is providing a diagnostic software update designed to monitor the battery and shut it down if a fire risk is detected.
The batteries can overheat during use, which may cause the unit to catch fire or release dangerous smoke. One incident of a fire causing property damage has already been reported.
LG Energy Solution Michigan will arrange for remote software updates to recalled batteries that are connected online. The diagnostic software updates are designed to monitor the recalled battery cells and shut down the battery if a fire risk is detected. If the battery shuts down, please contact LG Energy Solution Michigan for further instructions. Do not attempt to turn the battery on again. LG Energy Solution Michigan, its distributors, and its installers are contacting owners directly if their units are not connected online to arrange for a technician visit to manually update the diagnostic software.
