Here's one I found amusing.

Page21: The charger may not be used on humans or animals.

How is that even possible?



To use that on a human or an animal.

Did you hear about the Arab who bought a dairy?

The charger may not be used on humans or animals, that won't stop BigClive trying it out on sausage rolls or babybell cheese.

Even the most moist hot dog wiener isn't likely to do much at battery charging voltage.  :)

Touché, though sir, touché...  :)

Unless they also made chargers for the "B Battery" that the oldschool vacuum tube radios used to use. They existed in 90V and 120V variants. Now that could cook a hotdog

I have a funny feeling that "Voltcraft Plus Conrad charger manager 2020" model isn't going have the oomph to charge a 48, 60, 90 or 120V B-battery, "universal" though it may supposedly be.   ::)

If you look at it in a three-dimensional way (Tetraeder), then it could work.  :-DD

Can't see how that works, maybe you need a 4th dimension.
