Jack Butler: Yeah. 220... 221, whatever it takes

John Huntington of www.Controlgeek.net has posted a classic example of just how insane some of this industry can be. 

John posts a picture of a flyer from a 90's NSCA show of a product called the J-CON, a product which consists of an Edison socket connected directly to a 1\4" TRS plug. Yah.

You have to go and read the mind boggeling response from the Rep on the potential dangers. http://www.controlgeek.net/blog/2008/5/29/j-con-an-oldie-but-goodie.html

While your at it why not view a few more electrical horrors at http://www.ultimatehandyman.co.uk/forum1/more-electrical-horrors-t2444.html
