Philips is recalling approximately 87,000 Energy Advantage Ceramic Metal Halide Lamps (model CDM330) because the outer bulbs can shatter. If the bulb breaks, hot pieces of internal glass can fall from the lamp, potentially causing burns or cuts. The firm has received two reports of these lamps shattering, though no injuries have been reported. These 330W lamps were sold in both clear and coated versions and were primarily used in industrial and commercial spaces with high ceilings.
The outer glass bulb can unexpectedly shatter while in use, allowing extremely hot internal glass fragments to fall onto people or objects below. This creates a significant risk of thermal burns and lacerations.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled lamps and contact Philips for a free replacement.
