SumDirect LED Mini Lights Recalled Due to Battery Ingestion Hazard

What Happened

SumDirect has issued a recall for its LED mini lights because they violate mandatory safety standards for products containing button cell or coin batteries. The battery compartments are easily accessible to children, and the product lacks the safety warnings required by Reese’s Law. If swallowed, button cell batteries can cause internal chemical burns, serious injury, or death. No injuries have been reported to date.

Which Products Are Affected

The recall involves SumDirect-branded LED mini lights. These are multicolored, blinking lights that rotate and feature a built-in loop for hanging.

• Product Name: SumDirect LED Mini Lights
• Quantity: Approximately 1,600 units
• Components: Each light contains three preinstalled LR41 button cell batteries.
• Sales Information: The lights were sold online at Amazon.com from January 2016 through November 2025 for about $23.

What You Should Do

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled LED lights and place them in an area that children cannot access. The batteries should be removed and disposed of or recycled following local hazardous waste procedures. To obtain a full refund, consumers should contact SumDirect by email at [email protected]. Consumers will be required to send a photo of the product in the trash to verify disposal. For additional information, visit www.SumDirect.cn and click on “Refund & Exchange.”

Why This Matters

This recall is significant because the product fails to meet federal safety requirements designed to prevent children from accessing and ingesting hazardous button cell batteries, which can cause fatal internal injuries within hours.
