What is the danger
Due to similar appearance, risk of confusion with a circuit tester for 230 volts. Lack of warnings and safety instructions and the barely legible inscription on the tester “6V-12V-24V" make it likely that its misuse will lead to the risk of electrocution (internal resistance of around 500 ohms). In addition, the tester can be opened without difficulty and can therefore be tampered with. The product does not comply with the LVD Directive.
