Such as? The Multi-Master yes. But it's a relatively safe tool anyway.
There are plenty where you share a battery - but that's a different matter.
I can remember with a shudder all those attachments for electric drills -
most of which were near useless.

I am sure there are plenty of safe ones. It's the idea that you can do
this kind of thing with just anything that has tragic consequences for
the poor bodgers who think they've had a good idea.
