AmerTac Night Lights Recalled

By Chrissie Cole

American Tack & Hardware Co., working in cooperation with the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), issued a voluntary recall of Forever-Glo Nite Lites because they may have an electrical short which can cause it to overheat, posing a burn and/or fire risk.

To this date, the company has received nine reports of the recalled night lights, burning, melting and smoking. But there have been no reports of injury.

The recall involves Forever-Glo Cylinder Nite Lite with Model Number 71107 and a manufacturer code of SY. They were sold at hardware stores, lighting showrooms and home centers nationwide from May 2009 through September 10.

Consumers are urged to stop using the recalled night lights and to contact the American Tack for a refund.
