Misco Sports Light-Up Racket Set recalled for battery ingestion hazard
What this means
The battery compartment screw on these rackets does not stay attached when opened, allowing children to easily access button cell batteries inside the shuttlecock. Swallowed button cell or coin batteries can cause serious internal injuries, including chemical burns, and can be fatal.
- Stop using the racket set immediately and remove the shuttlecock from children's reach.
- Contact Missry Associates at toys@misco.us for a full refund.
- Dispose of the racket set and shuttlecock in the trash, then send a photo to toys@misco.us.
- Dispose of or recycle batteries separately following local hazardous waste procedures.

The agency's original wording
The racket sets violate the mandatory standard for toys because the screw on the racket used to secure the battery compartment does not remain attached when opened, and the button cell batteries in the shuttlecock can be easily accessed by children. If button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, including internal chemical burns, and death.
Consumers should stop using the racket set immediately, take the shuttlecock away from children and contact Missry Associates for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to dispose of the racket set with the shuttlecock in the trash and send a photo of the set in the trash to toys@misco.us. Note: Button cell batteries are hazardous. Batteries should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures.
