The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued a critical safety warning for Tajarly heated insoles, urging consumers to cease using the product immediately due to a significant risk of serious burn injuries and fire. The agency has received reports detailing instances of internal lithium-ion batteries overheating and igniting, even when the insoles are not in use. These incidents have led to burn injuries, with two requiring extended hospitalization.

The manufacturer of the affected heated insoles, Shenzhen Tejiali Technology Co., based in China, has not responded to the CPSC’s requests for a product recall or for additional information. The insoles in question are described as black, containing a lithium-ion battery, and are operated via a remote control. The brand name “Tajarly” is visible on the sole of the product and may also appear on purchase receipts. These heated insoles were available for purchase on Amazon between July 2022 and July 2024, with prices ranging from $33 to $320.
Consumers are strongly advised to dispose of these defective heated insoles in accordance with local hazardous waste disposal guidelines. It is crucial to note that these products should not be discarded in regular trash, general recycling bins, or standard used battery recycling boxes. Defective lithium-ion batteries present a heightened fire risk and require specific disposal methods. Consumers should contact their municipal household hazardous waste (HHW) collection center to inquire about their procedures for accepting defective lithium-ion batteries or devices. It is recommended to call ahead to confirm acceptance before transporting the items.
