  It’s pretty telling that the product page has zero reviews. I don’t think this product has any surviving users.

    I think it’s been taken down and relisted multiple times, possibly due to reports. I’ve seen these plugs on amazon for years now.

      Yeah makes sense. The whole listing is super sketchy.

    Even funnier is if you click on the brand SCTOU to see other products, their other items appear to be questionable body armor and anti-bird spikes. Seller names are different as well, but they’re all similar random Chinese names.

  The car community has a saying “Only when you know all the rules are you allowed to break some of them”

  Am I crazy or is the example picture of the interlock backwards. Both sides can be turned on, but only one can be off at the same time 😅

  • Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    You’re right, I hadn’t noticed that. They have the breakers labeled backwards from how they normally are.

      Yea I had to scroll down to the review pictures, I seriously thought I was going crazy over what is a super simple thing lol

  I'm not well informed, but I wouldn't be surprised if in some places it wouldn't be legal to sell that kind of cords (because of being a safety hazard and such).

  For a generator you ideally want a 220v version so that you can power all the circuits in your house. Which makes the suicide cord all the scarier.
