    electric plugs

    I thought that I was the only one… But it makes sense that other ADHD folks would too. Have a favorite plug? Mine’s the CEE 7/4 (Schuko). It just has a lovely symmetry and thoughtful, safety-conscious design.

      The UK plug seems to be the best engineered one, I’m partial to the French one, along the Schuko.

        The UK plugs are pretty great too. Easy to wire and designed to have fuses. I felt much more confident wiring one of those for my in-laws than I ever would with a US plug.

      at the moment i’m partial to andersons, wonderfully versatile, modular, and scalable. You can get them ranging from itty bitty baby connectors, to big chungus giga connectors.

      It’s a very nice design. I don’t like plugs, i think they’re all bad tbh.

      Ok, I had to look at this and I definitely agree. It’s much better than the US Type B plug which I’m always afraid I’ll short out when a random piece of metal falls on it.
