What to do now

The risk with SUPOR Electric Hot Pot is fire: a fault could cause it to overheat, melt or ignite.

  1. Stop using and charging it now, and unplug it.
  2. Keep it somewhere cool and clear of soft furnishings. Never put lithium batteries in the household bin.
  3. This is a safety report rather than a manufacturer recall: the listing has been taken down, but the seller may not contact you. Get in touch with the seller through the marketplace.
  4. If you cannot reach the seller, Trading Standards can be told through Citizens Advice.

Why it matters. Faulty chargers, batteries and appliances are a common cause of house fires. A fire can start while the product is charging or switched on and nobody is watching.

Summary

Product Safety Report for SUPOR Electric Hot Pot presenting a serious risk of fire.

The risk

The product presents a serious risk of fire as the plug does not meet the dimensional requirements of BS 1363. As the plug does not make a proper connection with the socket, it could overheat and cause a fire. Additionally, the plug failed to meet the requirements of BS 1362 as the plug did not have any facilities for a fuse. The lack of fuse protection means that the product does not cut off electricity under fault conditions and could therefore result in the lead or appliance to overheating.

Some of the required documentation and markings were not present.

The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994.

Action taken

The product has been withdrawn from the market.

Advice to consumers

The product has been withdrawn from the market.
