LED RECHARGEABLE SEARCHLIGHT
Brand: 

The cover for the LED can be removed by hand while charging, leaving live parts accessible. The cross-sectional area of the core of the wires is insufficient: in case of a short circuit the wires may overheat and can cause a fire. In addition, the flame resistance of the insulating material that holds the pins of the built-in plug in position is insufficient. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant standards EN 60598.

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.
