Hurt, no treatment Made Aug 4, 2017, sent to the company Aug 22, 2017, published by CPSC Sep 14, 2017
The product, in the report: Gold Armour Brightest Tactical Flashlight, FREE Flashlight Keychain Bottle Opener Included, LED Nightlight Flashlight - 1000 Lumens Tactical Flashlight High Powered, Zoomable for Emergency Camping Hiking
The Gold Armour charger does not use an isolated supply. Instead, one of the battery terminals has a direct path to the mains through a fuse and a diode as illustrated with the hand drawn circuit. The other side is not isolated either. Interestingly, it does not matter which way the plug is inserted, so even if it had a polarized plug, it would not be any safer, for up to 160VDC is present on the battery terminals regardless of orientation.
I discovered this by inserting the battery while standing barefoot on a concrete floor. I then measured 160 volts DC from the battery terminals relative to ground.
