CPSC recall,

Wyze Solar Cam Pan Security Cameras

Wyze Solar Cam Pan security cameras can overheat and pose fire and burn hazards.

Summary by Recall Canary from the CPSC notice

What happened

Wyze Labs, Inc., of Kirkland, Washington, is recalling Wyze Solar Cam Pan Security Cameras because incorrect assembly instructions can lead consumers to accidentally puncture the lithium-ion battery's metal casing, causing the battery to rapidly overheat and posing a risk of serious injury or property damage from fire and burn hazards.

The firm has received 13 consumer reports of the cameras overheating and six exploding and catching on fire, including six reports of consumers suffering minor burns. The cameras, model number WYZESCPWH, are wire-free, equipped with motorized pan-and-tilt functionality and an integrated solar panel, and were sold in white.

The cameras were sold at Home Depot and Micro Center, and online at wyze.com, Temu, Amazon, B2B Renew, Inc., ReturnPro and Best Buy, from October 2025 through April 2026 for about $80. They were made in China and imported by Wyze Labs, Inc., of Kirkland, Washington.

Consumers who used the long, flat-head screw to install the solar panel on top of the camera should participate in the recall. The firm is offering all affected consumers a free replacement camera with solar panel accessory, a full refund or a gift card for the original purchase price to use on the firm's website.

Consumers will be required to attest to disposal of the recalled camera and should dispose of it in accordance with local and state regulations, noting that the recalled lithium-ion battery must not be thrown in the trash, general recycling stream, or used battery recycling boxes.
