UK retailer Argos has issued an immediate recall on a power adapter part for a handful of its own brand Alba 8GB tablets after it was discovered that the 3-pin attachment, which slides on to assemble the charger, could in rare instances come away and cause a safety risk to owners.

The Alba tablets themselves and the USB leads are safe to use with another plug or to charge the device through a computer or laptop but as a precaution Argos is encouraging customers to return or dispose of any suspect 3-pin attachments used for mains charging and order another online.
