charging multiple electrical devices

[David Waterman]

Hi,

I am frustrated by the lack of electrical outlets in my bathroom. I realise there is an electric shock hazard and that is the reason behind this problem. However, I don't see why I can't plug all my devices in at the same time so they can charge, even if they charge one-at-a-time. Isn't it a simple enough matter to time share the supply to multiple plugs?

Is there some risk I'm missing here?

I find myself also wondering why things like shavers and toothbrushes can't charge via a USB outlet too. Of course, I'm presuming there that the risk is lower from a USB socket than the usual one - I know many USB chargers can supply quite a lot of current, and even at 5V that is probably some risk, but they don't have to supply a lot of current, I imagine.

What do you think?

Max.

Nice tel, proper job.
I use an old fashioned cut throat razor or double edge razor with old fashioned brush & soap, can't beat it. Can be fun if your hand shakes though

What a bloody daft thread, it does not happen here in the UK. Forget all that 3 meter rubbish.I for one would never even fit a switch inside a bathroom, pull cord or it goes outside, never mind a socket.

I am just old school, my old mentors would be turning in their graves, and some of them would be in their 90's if still alive.?
