Our note — not the regulator’s words
THIS NOTICE DOES NOT COVER THE LESTER CHARGER IN THIS CATALOGUE. It names the Links Series, models 28080, 28090 and 28100. The Lester charger held here is the Summit Series II 650W, part number 29700, which the notice does not name. That is not a statement that the Summit is unaffected by anything — only that this recall is about other models.
Everything above this is the notice’s own text. This paragraph is ours, and it is here because the notice cannot be read correctly without it.
No confirmed match to a specific product in our database yet for this recall.
