Just seen this on ebay, would you use this in a tent and is it safe?

They get away with selling them because they have their uses....it's just that camping isn't one of them.  Invest in a decent hook up and it'll earn its keep in no time.

It leaves me baffled why ebay allow these things to be listed for camping, they are lethal.

It scares me to think that 14 people out there have already bought them. To be honest, if I had not discovered this site and all the valuable advice on here I may well have ended up with one of those without really giving it much more of a thought. I agree - they should NOT be able to list them as camping equipment as it is putting peoples lives at risk.

We have one of these: http://www.camping-online.co.uk/mains-electrics/tent-electrics/delta-mobile-mains-unit.html which was £45. Sorry - cannot work out how to post a link!

For links PP, this is what I do:

With the page open you're wanting to show a link to, copy (Ctrl and C) the URL in the address bar. That copies it to your Clipboard.

Post your text then where you want the link, press the "world" symbol above the text box (fourth from the left). Key in the text you want (I keyed "link", without the ") and OK it, then in the next box press Ctrl and V to paste the URL in from your Clipboard.

Doing this you get a link to the site you were quoting.

There might be other ways but that's what I do.

My advice is worth no more than the price paid for it
