The rechargeable battery inside can overheat and rupture, posing a burn hazard.
There have been 22 reports of overheated and ruptured batteries, including smoke and minor property damage.

The batteries are about 1 ½ inches tall by 2 ¼ inches wide and are ¼ inches thick, black, and marked with TCL on the batteries' lower right corner.
