LED night lights recalled due to fire and burn hazards

American Tack & Hardware Company, Inc., of Saddle River, NJ is recalling about 227,000 LED night lights manufactured in China.

The company reports that an electrical short circuit in the night light can cause it to overheat and smolder or melt, thereby posing a fire and burn hazard to consumers. American Tack & Hardware says that it has received 25 reports of the night lights smoking, burning, melting and charring, but no reports of injuries.

The recalled LED night lights were sold at hardware stores, home centers and lighting showrooms from March 2009 through October 2010 for about $6.
