I worked at an electrical supply store foe a while. The amount of people trying to make these is really way too damn high. At least once a week.

Tell me you've never used a generator without saying you've never used a generator.

Tell me you've never heard of an Interconnect and put the lives of every power line worker in your area at risk every time there's a blackout without telling me...

I made one of those once by accident. I was talking a long extension cord that had been cut in two and converting it into two smaller cords. I messed up and attached the male to the wrong cable.

I'm struggling to imagine what the use case would even be.

If I ever buy one of these, I'd only ever use it to encase in resin and put on a shelf as a comedic ornament.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

I'm sure someone would sell you one.

I used it to connect a generator to the wall and give me some temporary power in my house when I was renovating. It's only dangerous if you are stupid.

Not smart. You could kill yourself or some poor electrician working the problem outside your house somewhere.
