Thanks Tony. We have these 'safety covers' all over our house to 'protect' our 18 month old grand son. He has figured out how to pull these out, and then tries to insert them in again. Looking at the fatally flawed web site, I can now see the risks associated with the safety covers. So, now banned from the house!

Many thanks.
 
I will be removing them from my business partners house tomorrow, with 5 yr old and 20 month old inquisitive and boisterous boys its an accident waiting to happen. Never given the things a second thought until I read the Link.
 
my sister in law is registered child minder i have told her a few times but she still has some plugged in as she was told of one of the bodies that she is regsitered with to use them
I keep telling her of the danger and have told her to google fatally flawed but to date i dont think she has
I am doing some work for my brother at the minute so will again whilst there google it and show her to get her to change her mind then i will suggest she sends email to whoever told her this so they may learn from the danger of there incorrect advice
as i go round testing i may even remove after informing her and my bruv of course
 
more CHILD-POOF! than CHILD-PROOF!

I`ve never liked these things and tried to tell people they're not beneficial but now I have some ammo.
 
I take it you don’t agree with the campaign?

Given you’re location, could you please explain any advantage of the American system of socket outlets over the UK system.

Whereas your system does require protection the UK system doesn’t, we as a group are trying to get rid of superfluous protection that make the situation worse.
