If anyone has one of these sparking adaptors, could they please bring it around and show me, I am good at getting product recalls happening ( I got Acer to recall a range of monitors due to a faulty on / off switch)
I can not see this problem, as it would result in an instant recall from a fire hazard perspective if nothing else.
