Meijer has recalled about 19,200 December Home branded candelabra style incandescent replacement light bulbs. These bulbs, which were sold in packs of one, two, or three, may include 3V bulbs intended for battery-powered fixtures instead of the 120V versions labeled on the package. If a 3V bulb is used in a standard 120V electrical fixture, it can burst and pose a danger of cuts to anyone nearby. Meijer has received one report of a bulb "shorting out" in a fixture, although no injuries have been reported. Consumers should immediately stop using these bulbs and return them to any Meijer store for a full refund.
The incorrect 3V bulbs can burst when installed in a standard 120V household fixture, potentially causing laceration injuries from flying glass. One incident of a bulb failure has been reported, but no injuries have occurred yet.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled light bulbs and return them to Meijer for a full refund.
Bulbs have a metallic threaded base and glass shell. Sold as Torpedo (2ct), Flicker Flame (1ct), Flame (3ct), and Candle Flame (3ct) styles.
