What happened

F&F mesh-shaped lighting chains with 256 non-replaceable white LED lamps have been recalled due to multiple electrical safety hazards. The cables lack proper anchoring and are too thin, and the exposed wires have inadequate insulation. These defects can cause the cable to overheat, creating a risk of burns or fire, and can expose users to live electrical parts, potentially causing electric shock. The products do not meet European safety requirements under the Low Voltage Directive and standard EN 60598. The affected models are 256L LED TENDA A PIOGGIA (models 65102, 65107, 65103) and 240L LED TENDA A PIOGGIA (models 65108, 65109).

According to the recall record, the remedy implemented was the rejection of the product at the import border, effective December 19, 2019. The source does not specify what action affected consumers who already purchased these products should take.
