The holes in the socket outlets do not have shutters to prevent access to live parts. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant standard IEC 60884.
The holes in the sockets are not protected by shutters. The user can consequently access live parts. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant national standard.
The holes in the sockets are not protected by shutters. The user can consequently access live parts. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant national standard.
The plastic is not sufficiently resistant to heat and live parts could become accessible as a consequence. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 20315.
The lamp housing and the connection box can easily break, which may give access to live parts or may generate a short circuit and a fire. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
The amount of lead in the soldering of the USB cable is too high (measured value: 42 %). This may pose a risk to the environment in the disposal of the product. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Directive 2011/65/EU on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS 2).
The amount of lead in the soldering of the USB cable is too high (measured value: 26%). This may pose a risk to the environment in the disposal of the product. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Directive 2011/65/EU on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS 2).
The insulation between the primary and secondary windings of the transformer is insufficient and there is a high likelihood of flashover occurring. If flashover occurs, there will be mains voltage on the exposed metal parts for charging the batteries. That means people might get an electric shock if they touch the metal parts. Also, if there are batteries in the charger at the time, the batteries might act violently to the high voltage leading to the risk of a fire.
The insulation and the creepage distance between primary and secondary circuit of the transformer are insufficient. Live parts can become accessible. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standards EN 60598 and EN 61347.
The product does not have shutters and the consumer can come into contact with live parts. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant national standard.
