    Re: product safety alert - usb charger.

    In NSW (Australia), I have read that Fair Trading inspectors seized a number of unapproved USB chargers (possibly including knockoffs) which plug into a mains outlet this year.
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

      the problem is because all modern fones charge from usb, there is a huge market for usb psu's now.

      there was a batch being supplied with raspberry-pi units a while back that may have been safe, but outputted 6v!!!!
