Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? This is a five-socket power strip made by the brand dpm. It is used to plug in many electrical devices at once.

What's happening? The strip does not have a safety part that stops too much electricity. The wire inside is not well attached and could come loose, showing live metal parts. This can cause a fire or an electric shock.

Does this affect me? If you own or use this dpm power strip in Poland, you could be at risk of fire or electric shock.

What should I do? Stop using the strip right away. Ask a shop or a qualified electrician for a safe replacement. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor if you feel a shock.
