Default Lidl extension lead. This can't be safe...


...Can it?

Note the "child safety feature" which I can only imagine is the mandatory shutter in the
socket or the equally mandatory shrouded pins on the plug.
Oh, and notice the handy hint about it only being "volt free" when unplugged, from the mains
presumably not the appliance.

It doesn't mention this feature though

Bare in mind that I am only using one hand, the other is holding the camera
And no, the centre screw on this sample is not lose, they are all like that, the material
is simply too flexible.


Report it ASAP to the authorities. Don't waste your time telling the Lidl sales droids, they will just offer you a
replacement/refund.


I didn't buy it. Photos taken in the store whilst food hunter-gathering.
