Petzl have issued a safety alert relating to MYOseries headlamps headlamps.
This safety alert applies to all Petzl MYOseries headlamps manufactured before the end of June 2008. For these headlamps, only alkaline batteries should be used. Rechargeable AA/LR6 batteries must not be used.
There is a low risk of fault if the headlamp is used with AA/LR6 rechargeable batteries. If a short-circuit was to occur in the cable connecting the battery case to the lamp, the cable could spark, melt, or catch fire. This may present a burn hazard to the user.
The risk of occurrence is considered low, but worthy of notice.
