The sockets are shuttered already though. They don't add any benefit. Daz

true, i dont think half as many people would moan if they were not dangerous though.They are not needed shanky, simple as that. Its a bit like teaching women to wash up, no need, its already in their genes...
would any of you complain if they changed them so the earth pin wasnt long enough to open the shutter? at the moment most just circumvent the built in protection aka the built in shutters.
I returned to this after many years and found them still on Amazon and this thread worryingly quiet. Time to revive it! Come one guys, start banging the drum again! I just posted a review there and will look for some similar products to review and start spreading the warnings again.Re: Fatally Flawed

Here is the Clippasafe product at Amazon:

Thanks for saying that -- Gush, water surprise! My comment has been deleted within 24 hours. Or possibly they take a long time to be approved... ;-)Although, just been going through some of the 'comments from customers' on Amazon....I've yet to find one later that 2016, so here's hoping.

I think he means on Amazon comments… or somewhere else these things are for sale.None of your posts have been deleted nor are there any awaiting approval.
Yes, I rather hoped that was obvious, however...I think he means on Amazon comments… or somewhere else these things are for sale.
On here there was this thread back in 2016during my research, I’ve been through the FF website and any links to official government departments such as DoE or NHS come back with dead links.
I’m looking for an official stance on these things rather than a campaign group against them.
I am in no way condoning the use of these. I, as an engineer, understand why they are dangerous and why they shouldn’t be used, but I would like an official government stance before contacting the school head. He may not see them as a problem without official guidance.
It’s the same as places like Amazon still selling them…. They haven’t been banned yet, so they have no reason not to sell them.
Another dead link to nhs page I’m afraid.On here there was this thread back in 2016
