However, some in-depth knowledge is occasionally required, because Amazon has sometimes internally defined the official device types of the EAR foundation (German WEEE and battery registration board) differently.
Here’s a little advice:
Category 5 - Small equipment (Equipment with no external dimension more than 50 centimetres) includes two types of B2C equipment for which can be registered:
- a) Small equipment, that can be used in private households
- b) Small photovoltaic panels, that can be used in private households
Category 6 - Small IT and telecommunication equipment with no external dimension more than 50 cm, is a B2C type of equipment for which to register:
- a) Small It and telecommunication equipment, that can be used in private households
