Christmas hazard at Walmart, Target: Over 40k tree light controllers recalled for this reason
About 44,600 Christmas light controllers sold at retailers like Cracker Barrel, Target and Walmart between July and November are being recalled over fire hazards. Mr. Christmas Recalls Wireless Decorative Tree Light Controllers Due to Fire Hazard. Produced by Mr Christmas LLC of Memphis, Tennesse, the Christmas tree light controllers have wireless receivers that prompt fire risk due to overheating when connected to an outlet. At Cracker Barrel and Walmart, the recalled controllers have been labelled as “Christmas Light Controller.” On the other hand, Target's Wondershop brand marketed the faulty units as “Tree Lighting Switch.” The following retail locations sold the units: Target Inc., in Minneapolis, Minnesota, for Wondershop™ branded products; Walmart Inc., in Bentonville, Arkansas, for Mr. Christmas-branded products; and CBOCS Distribution Inc., in Lebanon, Tennessee, for Cracker Barrel-branded products.
