Sublue is recalling about 40,370 lithium-ion batteries used in Sublue Mix underwater scooters because they can overheat and catch fire. The firm has received 161 reports of batteries swelling or overheating, including eight reports of fires and one injury. The recall specifically covers black batteries used in scooters colored arctic white, space blue, and aqua blue, as well as separate replacement batteries. Consumers should stop using the scooters with these batteries immediately and contact Sublue for a free gray replacement battery.
The lithium-ion batteries can overheat and ignite, posing a fire hazard. There have been 161 incidents reported, including fires that caused over $650,000 in property damage and one injury.
Consumers should stop using the scooters with the recalled batteries immediately and contact Sublue for a free new generation battery replacement (gray battery). Sublue will provide a battery collection kit for the consumer to return the recalled battery and will provide the replacement battery upon return of the recalled battery. Note: Do not throw this recalled battery in the trash or in used battery recycling boxes found at various retail and home improvement stores. Recalled lithium-ion batteries should be disposed of in accordance with any local and state ordinances, following the procedures established by municipal recycling centers for damaged, defective, or recalled lithium batteries, because these potentially hazardous batteries must be handled differently than other batteries.
Recalled batteries are black only. Scooters have "Whiteshark Mix Underwater Scooter" printed on the side.
