Incident Overview

On April 2, 2025, a consumer was using an HSXIRQA 65W USB-C laptop charger (ASIN B0CR1CTBMN) during normal operation. When inserting the charger into a wall outlet, the device sparked and briefly flamed. The consumer felt an electric shock in their right hand.

Safety Concerns

Immediate Dangers: When a charger sparks and flames during plug-in, it poses an immediate risk of electrical shock and burn injury. The electric shock can cause muscle contractions, nerve damage, and cardiac disruption. Brief flames can ignite nearby materials, leading to more extensive fires.

Long-Term Risks: Nerve damage from electrical shock may result in persistent numbness, tingling, or weakness. In this incident, the consumer experienced ongoing hand weakness requiring therapy, indicating potential long-term impairment of hand function.

Who Might Be Affected: The primary user is at highest risk, but bystanders near the outlet could also be harmed by flames or electrical arcing. Children or pets in the vicinity may be especially vulnerable.

Warning Signs: Prior to failure, users might notice unusual heat from the charger, discoloration of the casing, a burning smell, or intermittent sparking when connecting. Any such signs warrant immediate discontinuation of use.

What Our Clients Say

What Consumers Should Do

Stop Using Immediately: Unplug the charger from the outlet and discontinue use. Do not attempt to use it again, as it may fail catastrophically.

Do Not Attempt Repairs: Do not open or attempt to fix the charger yourself. High-voltage components can retain dangerous charges even when unplugged.

Preserve the Product: Keep the charger in a safe place for potential inspection by regulators or legal counsel. Do not discard or modify it.

Document the Incident: Take photos of the charger, outlet, and any damage. Save medical records and receipts. Write down the sequence of events while details are fresh.

Seek Medical Attention: If you experience any symptoms of electric shock—such as numbness, tingling, weakness, or burns—seek medical evaluation promptly.

Report to the CPSC: File a report at SaferProducts.gov to help identify hazardous products and warn other consumers.
