How sad - poor Arthur.
At least it makes us think and check everything. You can get an adapter that cuts out for single source. I discovered this when I found that care workers had to have one if they were using any electrical appliances in a patients home. I use for the electric mower I use for small jobs, but had not thought about it for lamps. Jan |
