Path lighting kits by Sterno Home are being recalled due to shock hazard
May 17, 2020
Sterno Home is recalling about 77,000 hampton bay, patriot lighting, and paradise light kits with LED power supplies.
The path lights have a defective Sterno Home LED power supply that has a plug blade that can remain in the AC outlet when the LED power supply is pulled from the outlet, posing a risk of electric shock to the user.
The firm has received one report of the light’s power supply plug blade detaching in an AC outlet. No injuries have been reported.
This recall involves hampton bay, patriot lighting, and paradise light kits sold with Sterno Home LED power supplies. The power supplies alter the voltage going through the light circuit. “Hampton Bay,” “Patriot Lighting,” and “Paradise” are printed on the rating label of the lights.
The path light kits were sold at Home Depot and other hardware stores nationwide and online from March 2017 through May 2020 for between $50 and $100.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled path lights and contact Sterno Home to receive a free replacement LED power supply and installation instructions, the company and U.S. Consumer Safety Commission advise.
