What is the danger

The plastic material of the insulation of the charging cord has an excessive amount of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP)(measured values up to 1,98 % and 1,75% by weight, respectively). These phthalates may harm the health of children, causing possible damage to their reproductive system. The metal (solder) in the product contains an excessive amount of lead (measured values 43,2% by weight). Lead poses a risk to the environment.
