So on the one hand we have a product which isn't even remotely designed for the use case (hamsters), and during normal use shows obvious behaviour (cooking) that should imply risk to said hamsters. On the other side, we have a product designed to be installed in an electrical system, and shows no signs during normal use that it's installed unsafely, and where the advertised specs are not actually safe for normal usage.

Whether or not the company in this case shares some or most of the blame with novice users - the analogy is not a great one.
