More than half a million tools sold at Lowe's and online were recalled. The batteries can short-circuit and catch fire when charged via the USB-C port while inserted in the tool. The affected batteries (3.0Ah, 4.0Ah, 5.0Ah, 6.0Ah, and 8.0Ah) were sold at Lowe's from January to May 2026
Batteries came with certain Kobalt trimmers, blowers, mowers, chainsaws and pruning saws equipped with 24-volt USB-C lithium-ion batteries.
