SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20161026-B08E9-2147411642. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: DREMEL Cordless Micro Dremel #411 (cordless Micro Dremel). Incident: A cordless Micro Dremel started all by itself last nite at 2am.It woke us from our sleep with the motor revving so high it took me pushing the off button 3 times.When we went to set it down my husband realized it was really hot so instead of putting it in the battery charging cradle we set it on the table in my craft room (where it was when it turned on by itself across the hall from our bedroom)We went back to bed and within a few minutes started to smell an electrical or melting plastic smell got up again and the Dremel was soooo hot my husband had to get a pot holder to move it outside.The smell was so strong we had to put on our fan and spray room spray.The next morning we brought it back inside and the strong smell was still there but it would not turn on or off.If we had not been home I really fear our house would have burned down.I do not recall hearing anything about this on the news but seems very unsafe.It started by itself!!!!!
