Default Nikon D7000, D800 Battery Recall

http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/11/n...attery-recall/

Just saw this pop on Engadget and thought I would post it here. Did a search and didn't see any topics on it. It is not a lot of batteries, but if any Nikon user on the forums has one of these batteries I figure it is something that they should know about if they don't already.

Nikon did issue recall in April, however the CPSC and HC just issued this joint document today. So figured it was relevant to post it here in case anyone was not aware.

Nikon first initiated this recall itself in April, but it has just now risen to the level of the CPSC and Health Canada, hence the new announcement. I think it's about 6000 batteries in the US and Canada.
