Great post on TGP - some random nutter has taken it as an opportunity to lambast the UK electrical system as being a giant con and huge waste of money

Yeah, because the US electrical system is perfect, right?

On any other forum I'd immediately assume that it was meant to be a joke.

The linked article is great- praising the UK mains plug as a "scientifically perfect caltrop"

Got my mobius in June, and the power supply snapped on first use. Never intended on using it, so just popped it back in the box and got on with playing it - but stupid really considering the price!

The say it effects those from Aug, I got mine in June and the PS split in exactly the manner described, so have a look if you have a slightly older one

They're going to build a wall to stop those PSU's coming in and charge Strymon for it's construction.

My PSU never left the box.

I've had two strymon wallwart psu's fail - 1 was replaced under warranty. Perhaps that's why they now sell their own pedalboard psu's !!

Strymons are really only meant to be powered by church electricity and played by P&W guitarists.

Anything designed in the UK is the best.  Yanks are a pack of dicks.

You're a bad one Mr Gassage!

Yes, the UK plug is the best in the world until you tread on one in your bare feet, then, the design leaves a lot to be desired.

I'm an Electrician, but I'm afraid my brain is anything but right.

That is hilarious! @english_bob

Genius vid, too, @olafgarten, I didn't know some of that.
