The product poses a risk of electric shock because:- the plug of the battery charger is non-standardized, therefore the live pins are accessible when connecting to the power supply,- the cover of the battery charger can be removed without using a tool, - the insulation of the wiring is not sufficient (flashover occurred),- certain safety instructions of the battery charger and warnings are missing. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and relevant European standards EN-60335 and EN-50088.
