Southwire Recalls Wi-Fi Switches Due to Fire Hazard
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The wi-fi switches can overheat, posing a fire hazard.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled switches and contact Southwire to receive $4 to purchase a standard (non Wi-Fi) replacement switch. In addition, consumers will receive a full refund once the recalled Wi-Fi switch is returned to Southwire. Consumers should hire an electrician to perform the replacement and Southwire will reimburse them for this cost.
