Product Hazard
InFocus Portable Projectors and Projector Lamps recalled for sock and fire hazards
April 4, 2006

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with InFocus Corp., has announced the recall of the InFocus LP120 Projector, ASK Proxima M1 Projector, and SP-LAMP-013 Replacement Lamp Module. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.

The units have improper wiring with inadequate insulation, which could degrade over time, posing a shock and fire hazard.

No incidents or injuries have been reported.

The recalled replacement lamp module is SP-LAMP-013 built between November 2005 and January 2006. There is no writing on the lamps, but “SP-LAMP-013” is on the label on the box.

The products were sold in office and business equipment stores, over the web and through phone sales, from October 2005 through February 2006.
