A FOX16 Deal or Dud product is now under recall. We featured the Handy Switch last year on Deal or Dud and our testers called the product a "deal". Not anymore. All 1.3 million Handy Switch wireless light switches need to be returned.

The switch that plugs into the wall can overheat posing a burn hazard. The company has heard 14 reports of overheating thus far causing nine fires. If you have a Handy Switch in your house stop using it immediately.

I followed all instructions to return a portion of the 2 switches I purchased. To date there has been no information returned to me, or replacements thereof as stated by this company.
