I’ve got one of those things as well in my bathroom. I don’t trust it at all and find it annoying not being able to turn one or the other on so I just never use it. Why do people even wire it like that?
Hope your finger gets better quickly, always sucks when you get a cut there
Yep, it really annoys me, too. Seems that the motor hasn’t fully burnt out, as when I turn it on, I can hear a buzzing (like a stalled fan motor). I don’t trust it, and don’t really want to take a fire extinguisher with me to the dunny in case it decided to catch fire, so I guess it’ll just be a flashlight on the night time dunny runs
Thank you, it’s stopped bleeding now so I was able to downgrade to a band-aid rather than bandage and tape. But it’s mega sore, and gonna be fun for the next couple of weeks
I settled on a night light being the only source of light in my bathroom and have got used to very dimly lit night showers/bathroom trips. Works really well as it doesn’t hurt my eyes whenever I walk into the bathroom overnight and I also don’t stub my toes as often as I wound in pure darkness. Might be worth looking into getting one as it can be easy to misplace a torch.
Unfortunately my toilet doesn’t actually have a Power point. My bathroom had one installed at my request a few months ago, but I didn’t think to ask to have one installed in my toilet. It could possibly be an issue though, as the toilet is a separate room that’s quite small, and has a sink that takes up almost a whole wall. I don’t know what the standards are for power points in bathrooms, but I don’t think it would be possible to keep the power point safe from splashing unless placed up inconveniently high (we have tall roofs, and the sink is already uncomfortably high)
