Filed under: Electronics
Belkin have recently voluntarily recalled several models of their SurgeMaster surge protectors, the reason for the recall is said to be because due to a risk of electric shock.
The models which are being recalled were all built in 2003 and sold between September 2003 through to December 2007 for around $50, there are said to be 68,700 affected surge protectors in all.
According to SlashGear the exact reason for the recall is to do with the 360-degree rotating power outlets, over time these can deteriorate and then cause a risk of electric shock.
