The CPSC and the Ningbo Dooya Mechanic and Electronic company are recalling their Cordless Window Shades Battery Packs.  These battery packs may overheat leading to fires and burns.  About 56,000 of these units were sold in the US and about 1450 were sold in Canada at 3 Day Blinds, Budget Blinds, Blinds to Go, The Shade Store and other window treatment stores and online at Blinds.com.  If you bought these battery-powered window shades, stop using their batteries and contact the Ningbo Dooya Mechanic and Electronic company’s service center at 1-888-943-2391 to obtain a free replacement battery pack and to obtain a postage-paid shipping carton to return your batteries.
