Product Details
Incident Overview
On September 16, 2026, an incident was reported involving the Cosyiker X004X62A8D rechargeable candles. According to the report, while a set of four candles was being recharged simultaneously using the provided group charging cord, one of the candles unexpectedly caught fire. The specific circumstances leading to the ignition, such as the duration of charging, environmental conditions, or prior use of the candles, were not detailed in the report. However, the incident clearly occurred during the intended charging process of the product.
Safety Concerns
This incident raises significant safety concerns regarding the Cosyiker X004X62A8D rechargeable candles and their charging system.
- Immediate Dangers: The primary immediate danger is fire. A candle catching fire, even if flameless, presents a serious risk of igniting nearby combustible materials, such as curtains, furniture, or other household items. This could lead to a localized fire or, in severe cases, a full-scale house fire.
- Electrical Hazard: The incident points to a potential electrical malfunction within the candle unit itself or the charging system. Overheating, short-circuiting, or battery failure during charging can lead to thermal runaway, resulting in fire.
- Property Damage Potential: A fire originating from a charging electronic device can cause extensive property damage, including charring of surfaces, smoke damage, and destruction of personal belongings.
- Risk to Occupants: Fires pose a direct threat to the safety of individuals in the home, potentially causing burns, smoke inhalation injuries, or, in extreme cases, fatalities. This risk is particularly high if the incident occurs unattended or during sleeping hours.
- Undetected Risk: Since the product is designed to mimic a flame without actual combustion, consumers might assume it carries minimal fire risk, potentially leading to less vigilance during charging.
What Consumers Should Do
Consumers who own Cosyiker X004X62A8D rechargeable candles should take the following precautions:
- Immediately Stop Use: If you own this specific model, discontinue using the product immediately, especially for charging purposes.
- Unplug and Isolate: If currently charging, safely unplug the charging cord from the power source and separate the candles from any other items.
- Check Your Product: Verify if your rechargeable candles match the Cosyiker X004X62A8D model number. This information is typically found on the product packaging, the bottom of the candles, or on the charging base/cord.
- Store Safely: Store the product in a safe, non-combustible location, away from children and pets, until further guidance is provided. Do not attempt to charge them again.
- Report Incidents: If you have experienced a similar incident or any malfunction with this product, report it immediately to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) at www.saferproducts.gov. This helps regulatory bodies track issues and potentially initiate recalls.
- Follow Manufacturer Instructions: Always follow manufacturer instructions for all electronic products, but in this case, due to the reported incident, extreme caution is advised.
- Never Charge Unattended: As a general safety rule for all rechargeable electronics, avoid charging devices overnight or when you are not home. Always charge on a non-combustible surface, away from flammable materials.
