Trading Standards issue DS charger recall notice

DarkZero: Over on their official website Trading Standards has issued a recall for a collection of dodgy chargers which were supplied as accessories for charging Nintendo DS and DS Lite and GBA's.

Apparently, the recall comes as the rouge chargers are prone overheating and can even cause electrocution. It seems that the chargers have made their way to the UK after being imported from China in vast numbers, and they are now available on the internet and in various shops for as little as £5.
