A rectangular shaped grey and black power bank for use with jump starters. Packaged in a black cardboard box with yellow text.

Should the user pick up the unit whilst in use they could trap their finger in moving parts and injure themselves. Additionally, the product’s plug face did not meet the dimensional requirements of BS 1363 because the product had an US style plug face.
