Indoor TV antenna with amplifier (UHF-VHF)
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
This indoor TV antenna with amplifier (model YTWY-9605) has been recalled due to multiple electrical safety defects that create a risk of electric shock. The plug dimensions do not meet requirements, the electrical insulation between live parts and accessible surfaces is inadequate and can fail at lower voltages than permitted, the core wire cross-section is much smaller than required (less than 0.1mm² instead of 0.5mm²), and the mains cord is not properly secured at the power inlet, allowing internal wires to become exposed and accessible.
The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and European standard EN 60065. Authorities have ordered the product withdrawn from the market and recalled from consumers. The record does not specify what remedy affected consumers should pursue.

The product poses a risk of electric shock because: - the dimensions of the plug significantly differ from the requirement, the electric strength between the live and accessible parts is non-compliant, thus flashover occurs at a lower voltage than required, - the cross-section area of the core is much smaller (<0.1mm2) than the required 0.5mm2, - the cord anchorage at the inlet of the mains supply cord is non-compliant, so the conductors of the mains supply cord and the wires of the transformer can move and become accessible. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60065.
