Catalina Lighting Inc. is recalling about 2,000 halogen clamp lamps sold at Staples stores. The UV glass lens on the lamp can crack, exposing the halogen bulb, posing a fire and burn hazard.
Catalina Lighting has received 65 reports of broken lenses. No injuries have been reported.
The halogen clamp lamps, also known as architect's lamp, have a 150-watt halogen bulb, an articulating arm, and a clamp desk lamp that adjusts up, down and swivels. Only lamps with model number 13456-US and lot numbers C06081581V185, C06081582V185 and C06081584V185 are included in the recall.
The lamps were sold at Staples retail stores nationwide from July 2008 through October 2008 for about $50. They were made in China.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled lamp and contact Catalina Lighting to receive a free replacement lens.
