I love seeing the sequence from design -> prototype.
I agree with some of the other posters though, any time you have a lot of current going through a connection that rotates / moves, you have the potential of reliability problems.
However, I don't think those are insurmountable problems, and good engineering could make this a reality.
One advantage is, if I recall correctly, UK is 220V as opposed to US 110V, so less current will be flowing through those contacts.
- weavejester 17y agoThe UK is traditionally 240V, but I believe it's 230V now, so as to be in line with the rest of the EU.
- danw 17y ago230V -6% +10%, which is just a fancy standards hack to make all of EU technically 230 without having to change voltage from 240

- natemartin 17y agoThat's how real engineers do it.
