What happened

Two electronic mini charger models—the FOREVER TC-02FR and NRG60 TC-02TF—have been recalled due to electric shock hazards. The chargers have multiple safety defects, including improper insulation between primary and secondary windings, inadequate clearances and creepage distances, connector design that could expose mains voltage, non-compliant plug sizing, and failure to meet electromagnetic emission requirements. The products also lack required markings for type and input power and do not comply with the Low Voltage Directive or European standards EN 60950, EN 55022, and EN 55024.

Both chargers are black mini travel chargers sold in cardboard packaging and were designed by TF1 in the EU but manufactured in China for Forever Europe (www.forevergsm.com). The distributor has undertaken a voluntary withdrawal from the market and recall from consumers. The source does not specify what action affected consumers should take to return or dispose of the products.
