Risk type:
Problem:
The product poses a risk of electric shock for the following reasons. Firstly, the dimensions of the plug are substantially less than required. Secondly, the wire ends soldered to the terminals of the flashing unit and the LEDs are not adequately protected against pulling and twisting. Thirdly, the accessible basic insulated wires can come into contact with sharp edges of the flashing switch and control unit. Finally, the insulation provided by the shrink tubing for the lamps is inadequate. Moreover, the cross-sectional area of the external and internal wires is too small and the wires could overheat and cause a fire. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
