Manik and Apex computer power supplies lack a permanent warning label
Manik and Apex-branded ATX computer power supplies are recalled because they lack a permanent on-product label warning of shock and electrocution hazards if the unit is opened.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The defect is an absent warning label rather than a fault in the product, and the remedy is a replacement label, which fits the Moderate band for labeling deficiencies.
Plain-English summary
ATX computer power supplies of varying wattages sold under the Manik and Apex brands are being recalled. The units can be black or white with "Apex" or "Manik" labels, and the 450W, 750W, 1000W and 1200W versions are affected. About 17,730 were sold in the United States, in addition to about 500 sold in Canada.
The units lack a permanent, on-product warning label identifying potential electrical shock and electrocution hazards, posing a risk of serious injury or death if the unit is opened or disassembled. No incidents or injuries have been reported.
The power supplies were sold online at www.ApexGamingPCs.com from December 2021 through February 2026 for between $70 and $150.
