How many Surface power cords are a fire risk? 2.25 million in the US

Microsoft has yet to go public on the number of Surface Pro power cords it is recalling over fire concerns, but the US Consumer Product Safety Commission has: it’s more than two million Stateside alone.

As revealed last month, Microsoft claimed it received reports that cords for the first, second and third generation of the slab-book sold before 15 March could be faulty. It warned this was as a result of them being "wound too tightly, twisted or pinched over an extended period”.

I don't have one, but many here do, so replace that cord. It's free and you don't even have to send the old one back.
