Hi All,

I get a few of these product recall notices because of the industry I'm in, is it worthwhile me putting them up here or would I be overloading the site? Maybe one of the moderators can advise better.

Same for me dave, I get these updates. I usually check for info that may be relevent and post. For those not in the electrical game a lot won't make sense.
