What is this? A string of outdoor lights made in China. The plastic cord and the solder inside the plug both contain unsafe chemicals.
What's happening? The lights have too much lead in the solder and too much short chain chlorinated paraffins in the cord. These can harm people and the planet.
Does this affect me? If you own these lights in Sweden, stop using them right away.
What should I do? Take the lights to a store or recycling point. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel unwell after touching them.
