What happened

IDEA lighting chains with 180 non-replaceable LED lamps are being recalled due to safety hazards. The cable is not properly anchored, and while the product is not protected against moisture, it is marketed for outdoor use. This creates risks of water penetrating the product or users touching live electrical parts, potentially causing electric shock. The product fails to meet the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and European standard EN 60598.

The recalled models are IDEA'S CHRISTMAS 180 LED MINILUCCIOLE in multicolor, warm white, and cool white variants, with model numbers HX906392, HX906393, HX908865, HX910829, HX910830, and HX910833. The recall was ordered on May 17, 2021, and includes both withdrawal of the product from retailers and recall from consumers. The source does not specify what action affected consumers should take.
