Hi all,

I accidentally bumped into this charger and now the bottom prong in this picture can wiggle left to right (relative to this angle). I wanna say it moved about 10° from its original position and you can see the bunched up plastic from where it moved.

I bent it back into position and it’s still very stiff… just wondering if it’s still safe to use.

Thanks for your help!

    It still looks sealed. Unless you see exposed wire I wouldn’t hesitate to keep using it.

    If it gets very hot and didn’t always, then I might reconsider. But I doubt you have a problem there. We all have had to bent prongs back to the right position before. My work vacuum is so loose now I basically have to bend them before each use lol

      Thank you! Yeah I tried moving it in all directions including pulling it out, and it’s in there real good.
