Is hyperx cloud 2 harmful for me?

malicalik13

Hello guys. I got a Hyperx cloud 2 headset a few days ago and today I noticed a warning label on the box saying:"WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause canser,birth defects or other reproductive harm". So what is this? Do I need to return the product?

It's a difficult one indeed, although I am curious about whether or not this is true.

its always comforting to see a cancer label on something you'll be wearing on your head

Unless someone repeatedly smacks you over the head with them, you should be fine.

the new, modern way of stoning: you get repeatedly smacked over the head with quality headsets until you stop buying turtle beach.

In case you aren't trolling:

 

It's probably lead in the cable or solder within the headset. As long as you don't chew on the cord, you won't even come in contact with the lead. Even if you do, you'll probably be fine. Lead is not anywhere near as toxic as people make it out to be.

HAHAHAHA

Now, let's get serious, it probably just means that the State of California is picky. Then again, they choose to not get vaccinated...

The state of california warnings mean nothing, do radio waves have the potential to cause cancer, yes, but so does the sun, your phone, everything you eat etc so ignore it

If you live in california, you will die from them.

If not your fine.

Literally everything is known to the state of California to cause cancer. Just about anything, in high enough concentrations can cause cancer. You won't get cancer, at least not from the headphones.

Literally, you can't go a block In a city in California without seeing at least 5 of those labels.

This Question is legit, I got the same label from my purchase on Newegg, but nothing on my OG HyperX Cloud 2 years ago.

I was concerned as well.
