Unfortunately I’m finding lots of these

Residents in the East of England will be safer after nearly 9,000 potentially dangerous batteries, chargers and devices were removed from sale and recalled from consumers.

The work was carried out by Trading Standards services across the Eastern region and follows a similar project last year that resulted in 1,800 unsafe lithium-ion batteries and chargers being removed from the market. Lithium-ion batteries are found in a large number of household devices, including laptops, mobile phones, vacuum cleaners and cordless power tools and can pose a serious fire risk.

The campaign saw Trading Standards services from across the East of England buy and test 18 items from laptop and e-scooter chargers to cordless screwdrivers, primarily from online marketplaces. All but one sample failed to provide the correct information as required by law, with 14 also failing on safety grounds, including risk of electric shock, fire and explosion.

The work, which is ongoing, has so far resulted in 8,798 batteries, chargers and devices being removed from sale and recalled from those who have already bought them. The number has risen sharply from last year’s project because of higher numbers of stock being held and more recall action.

Products tested by Suffolk Trading Standards included a battery charger posing a high risk hazards of electric shock, fire and explosion.

Make sure you only buy products from a reputable retailer. If buying on an online marketplace such as Amazon or eBay, make sure you check the details of the seller and that they have a UK address. Check the reviews for the product to see what others have said, and remember, if the price seems too good to be true, it probably is!

People are advised to only charge devices for the recommended amount of time and not while they are asleep or out of the house, as this could lead to a fire becoming much more serious.

If you have purchased a product that you think may be unsafe, stop using it immediately and report it to Trading Standards via Citizens Advice Consumer Service on 0808 223 1133.
