Philips is recalling nearly 13,000 baby monitors in the United States after the lithium-ion batteries were found to heat up so much that the device is at risk of causing burn and property damage.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced in an Aug. 3 recall notice that about 12,850 Philips Avent Digital Video Baby Monitors manufactured in China between March 2016 and December 2019 were recalled following reports of overheating in Europe.
