The hazard

The product is foreseen for outdoor use but the end connector is not protected against water penetration, and water can reach live parts. Furthermore, live parts (metal thread parts of the lampholder) are accessible in the lamp cap when changing the lights, and the user could receive an electric shock from them. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standards EN 60598-1 and EN 60598-2-20.
