Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

Manufactured with the incorrect component may result in lower power output and degradation or dimming of the aiming beam, leading to reduced efficiency of fiber performance. Continued use may cause overheating of the fiber connector, which could result in a burn, if touched

Potency and specification recalls happen when a batch tests outside its approved limits for strength, purity or dissolution, which can mean the dose delivered is higher or lower than labelled.
