Best · 140 LED Vilagit
The product poses a risk of burns due to the insufficient dimension of the cross-sectional area of the external and internal wires. The product poses a risk of electric shock because the wire ends soldered to the terminals of the flashing unit and the LEDs are not adequately protected against pulling and twisting and live metal parts could consequently become accessible. Moreover, the structure of the cord extension socket enables single-pole insertion of plugs. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60598.
