⚠️Public Safety Announcement⚠️
We recently visited a customer who had purchased a cheap WiFi booster. This one being a "WiFiBlast" unit. There are many variants of these cheap generic Chinese units to be found on the internet, whether it be eBay, Amazon or webpages set up to grab the attention of those searching for such devices. These devices are not only questionable on whether they work, but electrically dangerous.
When removing this from the customers socket, the unit came away from the thin, flimsy adaptor plate used. This leaves the live and neutral contacts exposed, presenting an electrocution risk. The construction of this unit and adaptor was so poor, that even after re assembling, the unit could be easily knocked and come away from the adaptor, giving the same result.
Please don't purchase cheap Chinese equipment. It is not always safe, not always good quality and not always legal. We know it's hard to know sometimes, but if in doubt, please always contact us.
