Anecdote: My 2008 charger had its "hot" prong break off. It was in a dorm, so I couldn't turn off the breaker to pull the prong out, so as far as I know that prong is still there ready to zap the shit out of some unsuspecting college freshman...
- jrockway 14y agoMost people would open a service request to get that thing pulled out rather than leave 120V exposed for whomever happens to be near that outlet next. (I would have just pulled it out with insulated pliers, though.)
- jonmrodriguez 14y agoAbsolutely, I definitely should have filed a request. I just remembered about that now in the context of this story. :( Hopefully it was found during summer room inspections.
- gcb 14y agothe problem i ever had with the short outlet plugs in the US is the cable falling on it's own. can't fathom it being stuck there in any circumstance.
