Models affected
Batch No: X0018UPISD
SKU: FX00031-UK
Details
A black charging unit and separate cable for charging a laptop supplied in a plain cardboard box.
The product presents a serious risk of burns as the charger has a counterfeit plug with an insufficient fuse. The fuse has no granular filler and as such can not function following a fault with the product. The charger may therefore explode and catch fire, posing a burn hazard to users.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016.
What to do next
