The recalled devices<\/a> have model numbers: UT3053, UT3056, ZLS-118, ZLS-118S, ZLS-118D, H01 and H01(PD) and were sold on Amazon, the Ocoopa and Walmart websites from September 2018 to May 2026. The China-manufactured devices were sold in two packs and have the letters “OCOOPA” printed on the top. <\/p>\n “Consumers should stop using the recalled hand warmers immediately and contact Ocoopa Direct for a full refund in the form of an Ocoopa gift card or the original form of payment,” the CPSC said<\/a>. <\/p>\n Because the devices contain lithium-ion batteries, they should not be thrown in the general trash bin. Instead, consumers should dispose of them through their city’s household hazardous waste protocols<\/a>.<\/p>\n “Defective lithium-ion batteries must be disposed of differently than other batteries, because they present a greater risk of fire,” CPSC said. <\/p>\n More information on the recall can be found on the Ocoopa<\/a> website<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An 83-year-old San Diego woman died in February after an electronic hand warmer overheated, which \u2014 along with…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":969886,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5134],"tags":[5229,1582,276,12310,3549,7264,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":["post-969885","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-diego","tag-america","tag-ca","tag-california","tag-recalls","tag-san-diego","tag-sandiego","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-usa"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/117011165236384207","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/969885","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=969885"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/969885\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/969886"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=969885"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=969885"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=969885"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"\/](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ocoopa-recall-1.png\")
