Eco plugs, claimed to save electricity, remain sold online despite failing safety tests and posing fire risks.

Illegal and potentially dangerous "eco plugs" that claim to save electricity are still widely available on online platforms like Amazon and eBay, despite government recalls and failing safety tests. According to a Which? investigation, these devices do not work as advertised and pose risks of fire or electrocution. Although the platforms removed the reported listings, similar products reappeared shortly after.
