Hazard

The product presents a serious risk of fire as the lithium-ion battery pack is poorly constructed and does not provide sufficient protections to prevent against thermal runaway. Additionally, the power supply is fitted with a noncompliant plug, with the plug pins too close to the edge of the plug face, exposing the user to live parts.

The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994.

Corrective action

We recommend owners stop using the product immediately and contact the distributor you purchased from to request redress.
