Why it's dangerous
The creepage and clearance distances between the primary and secondary circuits are inadequate. Furthermore, the capacitor of the product is insufficient and the conductors are not fixed properly. The user could therefore touch accessible live parts and receive an electric shock. Moreover, in the event of an electrical surge or fault, the printed circuit board may overheat and ignite, causing a fire.
