[photo-3d] Light Box Recall!!

An important notice to anyone who purchased an Apollo GlowPro light box
from me these last two years. The Apollo company is recalling all of
their light boxes that have the Canadian Standards Association "CSA"
approval sticker on them (these light boxes have the black on/off
switch). About 25% of the light boxes that I sold were the CSA approved
boxes.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) received two reports of
loose wires, one in which the light box caught fire. No injuries were
reported. Doesn't sound like a bid deal, but there is a recall.

Most of the boxes that I sold were the Underwriters Laboratory "UL"
listed boxes, and are not affected by this recall (they have the white
on/off switch).

Apollo is only accepting returns of the recalled light boxes until 30
December, so please check to see which light box you might have. If you
do have a CSA approved light box go to their web site, fill out the
online form, and sent the light box to the address listed. They will
send a refund check in 4 to 6 weeks.
