United KingdomGuangdong Dousheng Electronics 5W USB‑C Power Adapter (model SF‑20325, ASIN B0DJX8BB6B), a 5W charging cable with wall plug sold via Amazon, is affected. It presents a risk of fire because the plug fails BS 1363 dimensional requirements — excessive live/neutral pin sleeve dimensions and an undersized insulated shutter‑opening device (ISOD) pin — which can prevent a secure socket connection, causing overheating and ignition. Owners should stop using it and contact the distributor for redress; the import was rejected and destroyed and the Amazon listing removed.
