What is this? GLOD lighting chains made in China may have bad wiring. This can let users touch live wires and get an electric shock.

What's happening? These chains are not safe. They do not protect well against shocks.

Does this affect me? If you have a GLOD lighting chain in Slovakia, you could be at risk.

What should I do? Stop using it now. Ask a pharmacist or doctor if you feel unsafe or need help.
