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

What is this? A small power adapter called DZ-Energy may give you an electric shock. The plastic parts do not keep live wires far enough from metal parts.

What's happening? The adapter can leak electricity through its case. This does not meet EU safety rules.

Does this affect me? If you bought one in France, stop using it right away.

What should I do? Take it to a shop or recycling point. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel a tingle when you touch it.
