double insulated shaver socket with light strip

[freeonboard]

The Kitty Hydrofloss is double-insulated. (See the 2-square symbol on the underside of the unit). Whether your shaver socket is or is not isn't your problem.... The real issue will be if your shaver socket (SS) can deliver sufficient power. (Older ones can, newer one's can't... they have a thermal cutout built into them I believe.)

i.e. If your striplight + SS can power it without cutting out then I would get on & use it.

e.g. 2 SS's in my house can run it (they are 10+ years old) 2 SS's cut-out if I run the Hydrofloss off them (they are much newer).

Personally, if I didn't have a Shaver socket capable of running the Hydrofloss I would use a 2-pin adapter plugged into a socket somewhere convenient (eg the kitchen) & use it there. I really cannot see what issue there is in using just such a converter. - If there IS a reason I would be genuinely grateful to be told what it is!!.

p.s. I wouldn't recommend running an extension into the bathroom, although I have done just that on a temporary basis for the 2 minutes the gadget is in use, using a deal of care to not spray water near it.)

I hope that helps, a bit.

MY CAPS LOCK IS BROKEN WITH A CAPITAL B

Hmm. If it really is, then why don't you hold down the shift key while you type - it might save you an awful lot of grief!

Kind Regards, John

If you hold down the shift key when caps lock is on you will get the little letters.

lIKE tHIS but in reverse.

An echo, no less
