Had one from takealot catch fire. Though never had one from temu do the same cause I've checked them.A family member bought a car charger from Takealot. It literally exploded the first time it was plugged in. Our "forensic investigation" concluded that a fairly hefty diode was wired (in the correct direction) directly across the 12v input. The "voltage regulation" was nothing more than a zener diode and a resistor.
Temu generally sells the same cr@p as Temu, but at 3 to 4 times the price.
OTOH, if you are selective in what you buy, products from Temu are very good quality.
