What’s the Problem?
December 14, 2016 - The recall affects approximately 1,900 Orbit brand hoverboards / self-balancing scooters made by World Trading, according to the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) [1].
Hoverboards affected by the recall are powered by lithium-ion batteries, have 2 wheels at either end of a platform, and are sold in the following colors: black, blue, gold, green, red and white. The word “Orbit” is printed on a black sticker on the underside of the hoverboard.
Affected products were sold on Evine’s televised shopping programs and online in December 2015 for about $300.
If you purchased a hoverboard affected by the recall you should stop using it immediately and contact World Trading to exchange it for a free UL-certified replacement hoverboard.
To date, there have been no reports of incidents or injuries associated with Orbit hoverboards included in this recall. However, in July 2016 CPSC issued a recall for more than 500,000 hoverboards [2] following at least 99 reports of battery packs catching fire and/or exploding. The agency investigated over 60 hoverboard fires in 60 states, which together caused more than $2 million in property damages.
