DUNNES STORES IS recalling an own-brand EU travel adaptor plug – over fears that it might produce an electric shock.
The Irish chain has advertised the recall today, noting that the potential safety issue comes into play “if the product is used incorrectly”.
It looks like this:
The retail giant said it is issuing a full product recall “as a precautionary measure”. It asks for customers not to use the plug and to return it to any Dunnes Stores outlet for a full refund.
Note: it only affects plugs that were sold on or after Monday, 16 February 2015, according to Dunnes.

Shocking news!
As usual, no one will be charged over this.
That’s one bad plug for Dunnes !
How can it be used “incorrectly “?
It’s not a butt plug, I repeat it’s not a butt plug.
They mean if you put it up your arse.
How do you use it incorrectly?
Depends where you stick it?
It looks like it wouldn’t last zero hours if it’s faulty.
A current problem, I’m afraid!
Well Holy…. Thursday?
