CableMod Recalls 12VHPWR v1.0 and v1.1 Angled Adapters
CableMod issued a safety recall of its 16-pin 12VHPWR angled adapters, versions 1.0 and 1.1. The company cites safety issues behind the recall. This includes both the company's 90° angled, and 180° hard connectors. The company observed that the contact points in the male connector is improper, causing it to overheat and melt into the GPU. The safety issue only affects CableMod's hard adapters, and not its angled cables. Owners of these cables are advised to stop using the adapters immediately, and contact CableMod to be part of the recall, and further service recovery options.
