- Scoundreller 7y agoI remember doing this in a bar at 2am to one of those electronic paper towel dispensers. They work great, except when they don’t (which is most of the time). A swift elbow to the side cracks the plastic locking mechanism, dropping the cover and freeing the roll.
- zaroth 7y agoI think that one’s called vandalism.
- Scoundreller 7y agoI call it bringing them back into compliance with local bylaws on bathrooms.
- jscholes 7y agoI don't understand America's fascination with these. I first visited the US over 15 years ago and they were everywhere, but since then I don't think I've even seen a single one in the UK.
- Scoundreller 7y agoIt’s often in the building code or local bylaws. They don’t have to be automatic, but there’s probably evidence showing that the automatic ones reduce overutilization. Or do you mean the UK just uses air dryers? The newer vortex ones work ok, but the previous ones were useless, which encourages people to not wash their hands at all. Only having 1.5kw to work with probably didn’t help.

- Scoundreller 7y agoSure, but copper is expensive and you can pull double the current for the same wire at 240 vs 120v.
