"If it's Sparky's, it's Electric!" |
|
|
But where's the pony tail holder? I don't get it... |
|
|
As long as you're plugging it in, why not add a heater to dry your jacket? |

//Just plug Sparky's Grounded Coat Rack into any 3 prong electrical outlet// More detail required on the electrical side in order to avoid Mr Nasty Electrical Burns (no relation)
Why not have an anti static strap onto the nearest earth here you hang your coat? |

|
In the US, a 3-pronged outlet has a hot, neutral, and ground. The ground literally goes to the ground. I assume two of the prongs in this device would go nowhere. |
|
|
It could just be a single prong. The hot and neutral prongs could be nonexistant, or they could be rubber (just so you don't feel like you're a pervert). |

Bear in mind all you nay-sayers, all electical appliances with metal casings are plugged into the mains and earthed in the manner proposed. Toasters are a classic example - they're no more or less safe than Sparky's Grounded Coat Rack |
|
|
Quite a bit more safe, I'd say. Dropping this in your bath would do nothing. Except, perhaps, get all of your coats wet. And possibly confuse and bang up anyone in your bath. |
