Fixture can detach from electrical cord, causing it to fall unexpectedly
Illinois-based Tech Lighting, a subsidiary of Visual Comfort & Co., has issued a product recall notice in the U.S. and Canada for its Coda pendant light fixtures.
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the Coda pendant light fixtures can detach from their electrical cord, causing the fixture to fall unexpectedly, posing a risk of injury from impact. The fixture has been available in two sizes, large (40” high and weighs 7 lbs) and small (21” high and weighs 4 lbs). The retail sale price was between $570 and $840.
Occupants who own the Coda pendant or utilize spaces with the product are advised to immediately prevent people from going under the recalled light fixtures and contact Tech Lighting to receive a free repair kit. They will need to schedule installation of the repair kit by a certified electrician and Tech Lighting will reimburse the consumer for the service. Upon submitting the invoice to Tech Lighting for the installation charges, consumers will receive a reimbursement check.
A small quantity of approximately 670 products were sold at independent lighting stores nationwide and online at build.com, Circa Lighting and Y Lighting from December 2020 through March 2022. Eleven were sold in Canada.
