Risk
Electric shock.
Models affected
Brand: Leggio Aluminium
Details
The product is a traditional heating pan used to make injera bread.
The product presents a serious risk of electric shock. The product itself had a large gap around the switch housing which meant that a finger could enter and touch the uninsulated wiring during product use. There were also various sharp edges around the product which could either injure the user or damage the supply cord posing a further electric shock risk.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016.
GaN 7 Port Fast Charger Station - Safety Notice
Risk
Fire.
Models affected
Brand: Chongzheng (HK) Co Ltd
Model: RE-PC807
Amazon ASIN: B0CNXY87S7
Amazon identifier: FBA15HJFW7PWU000006
Details
The product is a multi-socketed fast charging power brick with several different types of socket inputs.
The product presents a serious risk of fire as it is insufficiently earthed. The fuse included with the product did not contain granular filler and the end caps were not correctly secured. Under fault conditions, the fuse would not operate properly and could catch fire, causing the product to explode. The cross-sectional area of the conductor was also insufficient, which could lead to overheating and ignition.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994.
YSJOMJHYS Laser Level - Safety Notice
Risk
Electric shock.
Models affected
Brand: YSJOMJHYS
Model: OM-4D-2
Amazon product identifiers: X001CMRMXL, FBA15HR2RNY4U000003
Details
Laser level with carry case and wall plug.
The product presents a high risk of electric shock as the internal construction was such that wires can detach to reduce creepage and clearance levels, causing high voltages at the output. The internal insulation was also insufficient and the plug pins were of an incorrect size. The product also requires improvements to marking, labelling and documentation.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994.
Candle Warmer Lamp - Safety Notice
Risk
Fire.
Models affected
Brand: MQFORU
Model: UBL8008
Amazon product identifiers: X001TJAOD7, FBA15HVQNLHNU000008, SKU: NLDH-UK-MQFORU
Details
Small lamp with resting placement for a candle in order to keep the wax warm. Includes a bulb for the product and instruction manual. Supplied in white cardboard packaging with gold detailing.
The product presents a serious risk of fire as it is insufficiently earthed. The fuse has no granular filler and therefore would provide no protection under fault conditions such as a short circuit or an overload. The plug could therefore explode from the wall causing a fire. The metal parts of the luminaire were also separated from live parts with only basic insulation. Under fault conditions, accessible metal parts could become live and give the user an electric shock.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets (Safety) Regulations 1994.
LED 75mm Recessed Downlight - Safety Notice
Risk
Electric shock.
Models affected
Carton numbers: HGFur2309006019 (-02X5, -02X10, -03X5, -04X10).
Details
75mm recessed LED driver downlight with wiring for installation.
The product presents a high risk of electric shock as live parts were protected by only basic insulation. Under fault conditions, the insulation can break down and cause accessible metal parts to become live. If the user then touched the product, they would receive an electric shock.
The product also required improvements to marking, labelling and documentation.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016.
BL Motor Cordless Angle Grinder - Safety Notice
Risk
Fire and electric shock.
Models affected
Brand: BL Motor
Other identifiers: XC2, AG23040819B
Details
A cordless angle grinder with lithium batteries and chargers, supplied in a black carry case with red closure clips.
The product presents a high risk of electric shock as the plug face does not meet the dimensional requirements of BS 1363. The distance between the neutral pin and the outside edge measured too small allowing the user to access live parts when plugging in, or unplugging, the plug from the socket. The product also presents a risk of fire as the fuse had friction fit end caps and did not contain a ballast, meaning it would not provide the necessary protections under fault conditions. Additionally, the internal build quality was deemed inadequate as the charger had poor quality soldering with wires soldered directly to the PCB and the transformer was of a poor build quality because the primary and secondary windings were found to be touching.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, or the Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994.

Details
USB Charging Station with a digital display screen and power supply cord.
The product presents a high risk of electric shock as it is possible for internal insulation to break down.

5-In-1 Multi-Functional Hair Dryer - Safety Notice
Risk
Fire.
Models affected
SKU: 67000037
Barcode: 67000037
Product carton identifiers: Q7-5in1-Whitegold, 6700037 Q7-5in1-Rosered, 67000036
Details
A hairdryer with multiple attachments with different functions. The product also includes an attached wall plug.
The product presents a high risk of fire as the plug does not have the facility for a fuse, which means it has no protection under fault conditions. If the circuit was to overload or short, the plug could explode from the wall and catch fire. The earth pin has been fitted with a sleeve which could prevent the good earth contact, and testing found that the lengths of the live, neutral and earth pins were too short which could lead to arcing and presents a risk of fire.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994.
