Lorex Recalls Video Baby Monitors Due to Burn Hazard

Lorex Technology, Inc has issued a recall of their Lorex Care ‘N’ Share video baby monitors. The video monitor’s batteries can overheat, swell and expand and cause the battery cover to open or come off. This can expose hot batteries, posing a burn hazard to consumers.

About 26, 000 of the affected monitors were sold in the United States, along with about 8,000 in Canada. The Care & ‘N’ Share monitors were sold at Best Buy, Babies “R” Us, The Home Depot, B&H,  Walmart and online at Amazon.com and www.lorextechnology.com from May 2013 through April 2016.  The video baby monitors were sold in bundles for between $60 and $140.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled monitors and contact Lorex to receive a full refund.

The model numbers included in this recall are WL3520, WL4320 and WL3401. The model numbers are printed on the back panel of the monitor. The monitors were sold in bundles with cameras. The monitors contain a blue lithium polymer battery and measure about 4 inches tall by 5 inches wide. The monitors have a white plastic back and either a white or black border. “LOREX” or “The Lorex Baby” is printed below the monitor screen.
