Affected
White ceiling mounted luminaire
The problem
The product presents a risk of electric shock as the luminaire had metal parts insulated from live parts only by basic insulation. There was also no bushing on the entrance hole for the input tails, so the sharp edge of the hole was damaging the insulation, which presents an electric shock hazard to the user.
What to do
The listings have been taken down. If you bought one, stop using it and contact the seller for a refund.
