The product, in the report: Sonnet Model R-1414 AM/FM Alarm Clock Radio Model R-1414
I have seen several SONNET branded alarm clock charging stations at IHG Holiday Inn hotels. These clocks pose electrocution danger, fire risk, and show no evidence that they have been tested by UL or verification of FCC part 15 compliance. I am an electronics engineer, these alarm clocks have 3 prong convenience outlets on the top to connect grounded appliances. However, the supply line cord for the device is two prong and therefore eliminates the ground for any device plugged into the convenience outlets. Furthermore, the line cord on the device is 18AWG which cannot safely carry more than 7 amperes of current. There appears to be no current limiting device on the unit that would prevent someone from plugging in a high powered appliance and seriously overloading the line cord, possibly starting a fire. This scenario is especially feasible in the hotel environment I have seen these devices where housekeeping may be tempted to plug commercial grade vacuum cleaners into the convenience outlets. The user of the vacuum would thereby also be exposed to electrocution should there be a fault in the vacuum.
I believe these devices are extremely dangerous and should be recalled and removed from sale.
Device is Sonnet Model R-1414 AM/FM Alarm Clock Radio
