Wyze Labs Recalls Solar Cam Pan Security Cameras Due to Risk of Serious Injury from Fire and Burn Hazards

Wyze Solar Cam Pan security cameras are outdoor security cameras that run on a lithium-ion battery. They are wire-free and have a motorized pan and tilt function, as well as a solar panel. Wyze Labs recalled these cameras on June 4, 2026, because their incorrect assembly instructions can result in consumers inadvertently puncturing the lithium-ion battery’s metal casing. This can cause rapid overheating of the battery, and in turn, there may be a danger of serious injury or property damage from fire and burn dangers. If you or a loved one was injured as a result of one of these security cameras, you should call the seasoned Chicago-based product liability lawyers of Moll Law Group. Billions have been recovered in cases around the country with which we’ve been involved.

Wyze Solar Cam Pan has gotten 13 consumer reports of these security cameras overheating. Six have exploded and caught on fire, and six consumers have suffered minor burns.

From October 2025 through April 2026, the recalled cameras, were sold at Home Depot and Micro Center, and online at www.wyze.com, along with Amazon, Best Buy, Temu, B2B Renew, Inc., ReturnPro for approximately $80. These cameras are white with model number WYZESCPWH printed on the back. Around 321,360 units of the camera were recalled.

Consumers have been asked to stop using the camera right away and visit http://www.wyze.com/SCPrecall to figure out whether their devices have been impacted by the recall. If you used a long, flat-head screw to install the solar panel on the top of the camera, you’ve been asked to participate in the recall. If you don’t know what kind of screw you used in installation, you can go to the company website for assistance on identification procedures.

The company has offered consumers a free replacement camera, a full refund, or a gift card for the same amount as the original purchase price. And they must attest to disposing of the recalled camera. However, if you were injured because of the security camera, it’s important not to dispose of the camera, as it is evidence. You may be able to bring a product liability lawsuit to recover compensation for your injuries.

To recover damages, we will need to establish that the security cameras had a defect and that the defect caused your injuries under one or more theories of liability. The theories of liability our attorneys may be able to use vary from state to state. They can include negligence, strict liability, statutory violations, breach of warranty, and breach of contract. Once liability is established, our attorneys may be able to recover sufficiently certain economic and noneconomic damages on your behalf.
