The following recalls have been announced:

Toy helicopters. About 78,000 Protocol remote-controlled mini helicopter toys, made in China and imported by Ashley Collection. The toy's rechargeable battery can overheat and melt the product, posing a risk of fire or burns to consumers. The company has received nine reports of the toy overheating, including one minor burn to a consumer's fingertip. The product, which has a model number starting with 1442, was sold at stores nationwide from October through December. Details: http://www.protocoldesign.com or http://www.cpsc.gov.

Gas boilers. About 1,200 gas boilers, made in the U.S. by PB Heat LLC, because a defect could allow the boilers to produce high levels of carbon monoxide, posing a risk of carbon-monoxide poisoning to consumers. No incidents or injuries have been reported. The recall includes the DE and PSC II Gas Fired Cast Iron Boilers with the Endura Plastics Model ES2035 pressure switch used for home heating and domestic hot-water heating. The gas boilers were sold at plumbing and heating wholesale distributors nationwide from May 2007 through July this year. Details: http://www.peerlessboilers.com or http://www.cpsc.gov.
