Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20250102-F83F7-2147334211. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Uniden SDS100. Source model text: SDS100 RADIO SCANNER. Incident: Purchased a "Uniden SDS100 radio scanner"... Factory Rechargeable battery pack expanded to nearly 3 times it size & got hot. This is clearly a dangerous battery pack as it could explode & burn a house down. I have heard that Uniden knows of the problem but they have no remedy.
