murphy Posted August 23, 2018 at 12:19 AM Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 at 12:19 AM There is no risk with mine. It's been used 3 or 4 times in 5-1/2 years. I charge on 240 volts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One time is enough to burn your house down. Most people will go on using the impacted cables and never have an issue, but if you're the lucky one, hopefully your insurance polices are current.
