Skylight recalls power adapters sold with digital photo frames due to electric shock hazard

Skylight is recalling about 65,000 series I power adapters for Skylight digital photo frames in the United States and about 159 in Canada.

The power adapter casing can break when plugged into an electrical outlet, exposing its metal prongs, posing an electrical shock hazard.

Skylight has received eight reports of adapters breaking and exposing their metal prongs, including one report of an electric shock to a consumer.

 This recall involves the Series I power adapters sold with Skylight digital photo frames. The power adapters are black and have a circular indentation on the side. UPC code 679113611535 can be found on the packaging. Only the Series I adapters are included in this recall.

The photo frames were sold online at www.skylightframe.com and Amazon.com, and in Von Maur stores nationwide from April 2018 through March 2019. The cost was about $160 for the digital photo frame.   

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled adapters and contact Skylight for instructions on proper disposal and how to receive a free replacement adapter, the company and U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission advise. Skylight is contacting all known purchasers directly.

For more information, call Skylight at 888-359-4389 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, e-mail [email protected], or visit www.skylightframe.com and click on Product Recall Information.
