The Ministry of Economy and Industry announced a recall for a fast phone charger model Quick Charger 62-A2C2 (20W), marketed by 'Target Home Tools Ltd.'. Tests by the Standards Institute found that the charger does not meet Israeli safety standards: the plastic parts and pins are not fire-resistant, the insulation fails, the plastic softens under heat, and internal components were not approved. Additionally, the power pins are thicker than allowed and may get stuck in the socket, potentially leaving live parts exposed. The ministry calls to stop using it immediately and contact the company for return instructions.
