Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20120402-CCA5D-2147468739. Matched catalog product: Sony NP-FX110. Source model text: Sony Battery Pack, Model No. NP-FX110. Incident: While my son was sleeping, he heard a crackle coming from his Sony CD/DVD player that was plugged in and charging. When he got up to check, he found that the battery pack had expanded/exploded and deformed the plastic case. This is a potential fire hazard. The player is Sony Model No. DVP-FX921, with a barcode that states "Produced 09A8 S01-5007627-D." The battery is Sony Model NP-FX-110, barcode S01-9302757-J-A. The battery is a Lithium Ion rechargeable battery pack made in China. It was being charged with the Sony charger that came with the player, Model No. AC-FX160. I have not yet found the receipt, but believe it was purchased around two years ago.
