Knog recalls Blinder 900 & 1300 bike lights due to fire hazard

Knog Pty Ltd has announced a recall for their KNOG Selected Blinder 900 and 1300 Bike Lights, which were sold individually or as part of a set. The recall is due to a defect in the battery cells that could lead to the lights catching fire or combusting, posing a risk of burns and damage to property. Approximately 25 units are affected in the Republic of Ireland, and these products were available at various bike accessory retailers from January 2023 to November 2024.

The specific batch numbers involved in this recall are 0124AA, 0423AA, 0723AA, 0923AA, 1023AA, and 1123AA, which can be located on the underside of the bike lights. Customers who have purchased these products are advised to stop using them immediately. Instead of returning the items to the retailer, consumers should register their recalled product through the provided recall safety notice and arrange for a replacement.

Once registered, customers should dispose of the recalled bike lights at a local recycling facility that accepts Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), including lithium batteries. For further assistance, customers can reach out to Knog via email at recall@knog.com.
