- Description
- Rechargeable torch with 15 LEDs. The housing is made of yellow plastic, with a black operating button and a green charge indicator lamp. The battery can be charged via the built-in plug with telescopic pins. Two plug adapters are supplied with the product. Packaging: cardboard box.
- Risk
- null The pins of the built-in plug and plug adapters do not have an insulating collar, so when inserting the plug the user may touch the live pins. The plug adapter allows single-pole insertion of a plug, leaving the remaining free live pin accessible. The cover for the LEDs can be removed by hand during charging, leaving live parts accessible. The cross-section area of the core of the wires is less than required: in case of a short circuit the wires may overheat and can cause a fire. The heat and flame resistance of the insulating material that hold the pins of the built-in plug in position is not sufficient.The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant standards EN 60598 and IEC 60884.
