The cable anchorage to the remote control unit does not have sufficient mechanical strength and could break thus exposing live parts. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
There is no mechanism to block the screwed cable entry. When the user inserts and removes the bulb several times, the cable will start to screw and unscrew. This can damage the cable, leaving the live conductors accessible. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant national standard.
The chargers pose a risk of electric shock because the insulation is not sufficient and the clearance /creepage distances between the primary and secondary circuits are not sufficient. The products do not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60065.
The cross section of the wires is too thin and they could overheat. The wires can also come into contact with the sharp edges of the control unit. In both cases, the live wire conductors could become accessible. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
The cover of the lamp can be removed leaving live parts accessible. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
The sockets do not have shutters to prevent access to live parts. The product does not comply with the requirements of the relevant national standard.
The plastic casing of the product can easily break leading to the risk of water penetration. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
The electrical insulation is not sufficient and a short-circuit could occur, causing the user to receive an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60950.
The electrical insulation is not sufficient and a short-circuit could occur, causing the user to receive an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60950.
The rubber coating on the portable plug socket cable contains 4,7% by weight short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs). The placing on the market and use of articles containing SCCPs is banned. SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bioaccumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. The product does not comply with the Regulation on persistent organic pollutants (POP Regulation).
