Clarion NICE P2000 Battery Recall

Looks like the recently announced Clarion NICE P2000 has some battery issues, like a lot of other electronic gizmos lately. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission the batteries are overheating:

" The N.I.C.E. P200 is a black portable navigation and entertainment device that can be attached to a vehicle’s windshield. The device has a 4-inch touch screen LCD monitor and contains one lithium battery. “Clarion” and “N.I.C.E. P200” are printed on the device. “Clarion NAVBATTERY,” “Rechargeable Li-Polymer Battery,” and “Made in Korea” are printed on the battery. Only N.I.C.E. P200 units with serial numbers ending in “UE” or “UF” are affected by this recall. The serial number is located on a white label on the back of the device."

The company is sending out new batteries to users who send in their old ones.
