@paco @BenAveling it is just a stupid electronic device

@paco ah! my mistake. hmm that's a difficult one. I would definitely get an electrician's advice. There are a number of the L1/L2 chargers that are marketed as RV campsite rated that should have the correct plug but ya. electrican advice

@paco I have no helpful advice, but your situation did bring to mind this recent #xkcd on universal sockets

@paco The amount of current that goes to the car is limited by the charger (and the car, of course). So, it's up to you to set the charger to a current that's small enough so your plug and circuit can supply it.
AFAIK, the charger doesn't have any way of knowing what size circuit breaker it is attached to.
Oh, also, you're not supposed to use 100% of the capacity of your circuit breaker in the long term. For instance, on a 15 amp circuit, you're not supposed to set the charging current above 12 amps.

Welp. @steggy called it. It lasted about 45 minutes. I’m getting ready for bed, I’m taking off my wedding ring, and my finger slips. Somehow (absence of sobriety may be a correlated event) my fingers slipped and the thumbnail of one thumb cut a gash in the other. Ouch!
Ok. Regression to the mean, right? It’s gonna get a little better now?

@paco went to bed at 10. Up at 05.30 for this

@tamonten That’s how I always hear the flight attendants announcements on airplanes. “Please put your carrion under your seat or in the overhead compartment. If you had to gate-check your carrion, you can pick it up on the jetway when we arrive.”

@paco we saw a bunch of corvids picking at road kill the other day and I started singing “carrion my wayward son”

They are safe if used correctly. The problem is that there's a tiktok "lifehack" going around that tells you to clean your baking trays in the self-cleaning mode. That's actually very dangerous. -
@paco Hey, that's the director. They have to listen!
