The gloves have a button battery compartment that can be easily opened by children.  In addition, spare batteries supplied with the gloves are not packaged in child-resistant containers or labeled with required safety warnings under Reese’s Law. If swallowed, button batteries can cause internal chemical burns, serious injury, or death.  Affected is model number ST01.


About 9,900 gloves were sold nationwide on Amazon.com between January 2025 and April 2025.


Immediately stop using these recalled gloves and keep them away from children. To receive a full refund or to obtain more information, contact Minongad via email at [email protected].  Dispose of the button batteries at local hazardous waste recycling centers.
