In the news today FYI.
A BATCH of faulty Christmas lights that authorities say may have exposed wires has been recalled.
The Reject Shop's 10-metre Christmas Controllable Ropelights, which have been sold over the past three months, have "possible exposed wiring" which could lead to electric shocks, Queensland's Department of Justice says.
The fault was picked up by the state's Electrical Safety Office during store audits.
The importer has voluntarily recalled the product Australia-wide and the Electrical Safety Office says anyone who has bought the lights should return them to the store for a refund.
The product's full name is Christmas Controllable Ropelight, Model No. LSRC10, with batch code TRS052011.
