2006, Eeyore writesIn fact, the battery people did produce a draft EMC standard for batteries, but common sense, a rare commodity in CENELEC, prevailed.
However, some batteries may have applicable safety standards, in the future if not now.
That was supposed to be :) , but I didn't notice it till I hit send. :(
I use Li+ packs in my products, and although there are no CE marks, I can't order them without safety interrupt (overvoltage in particular) circuitry attached.Even though my charger implementation inherently provides that functionality, I still have to provide the CoC / mfr statement on product safey compliance for *my* product CE mark.

Well, reach down, fill up a shoe, and take a big fat swig!
Ooops... too late. :-]

You had me worried there for a moment!
Pouring instructions are on the bottom of every CE-marked boot.

Lots of battery packs have embedded uPs these days.

My left arm was hurting so bad a couple days ago i was ready to let the doctors go ahead and sever the nerve bundle above my left elbow to stop it. Most of the time it is just my left hand that throbs and feels like an electric shock.
Welcome back, anyway! ;)
And yet you steadfastly refuse to even consider the possibility that alternative treatments could be useful - hypnosis and acupuncture spring to mind, amongst many others.
Good Luck! Rich
Hello Frank,
So why, then, do the Texas Instruments EZ430 kits that I have here not carry a CE mark? These are self-contained programmer-target combos for their MSP430 series. Supposedly made in Germany and these are sold worldwide. Certainly also in Europe.
Not so actually. Cars for example come under a different scheme and I've yet to fathom the meaning of the 'e' on food products.
Quick ! Report TI to the CE Police !
I've also noticed that some memory for PCs is marked CE and others isn't.

Hello Graham,
Nah, I think that company has strictly enforced standard operating procedures for anything they make. They would know.
We buy lots of stuff from Europe. Just got another water bottle so I looked inside our fridge. Could not find a CE mark on the Nescafe squeeze bottle. None on the chocolate either.

I was only joking ! ;~)
I suspect they do. It's a 'sub-assembly' of sorts - not a 'finished product' and not on sale to the public, which likely exempts it.
CE doesn't apply to food. Look for the lower case 'e' though.

Pinched nerve? Accident damage? War wound?
Carpal tunnel in both hands and severe nerve damage in my left arm as a complication of Type II Diabetes and high blood pressure.
Mine (two shipments) are all CE marked. On the back of the DVD-style case, just left of the stick-on label.
Best regards, Spehro Pefhany

Production processes, and packaging. Can you really be that dopey?
Do you know what a "carbon footprint" is?
