ABSTRACT
Research material from that litigation included information obtained from the Easy-TV Company. This confirmed that the subject DVD remote control was manufactured in China, and the "Audio video (AV) Selector" housing was designed and manufactured by another Chinese company for Easy-TV. The hazard control alternative of totally eliminating the hazard might mean not including a remote with the AV switch unit. Or if one is included, it could be powered differently with a non-replaceable battery, or rechargeable battery with a sealed battery compartment. To add additional securement using a fastener such as a screw would require additional parts, use of additional equipment, time and labor for assembling of the remote, and possibly tapping the female location wherein a screw might be placed. One was on the packaging, which contained both the AV Selector and the remote, the second was in a brief instructions booklet included within the plastic clam shell packaging, and the third was on the product itself.
