Default Ground Hanger.....really!?!?

Just saw this at Agon.....wonder if they really sell these for real. Of so I think I am going to make something with this sort of claim, maybe uglier, and try to sell it there for twice the price.

I wonder of there are any electrical engineers or similar education background here that could even start to give some sort of credibility to the claims made here.....my guess is not.

LOL Looks like a spray painted Potato with a piece of copper tape shoved into it. Surely it has to be a joke.

I saw something like this burning on a neighbors porch and some teenage kids were running away laughing as the poor guy tried to put out the fire by stomping all over it.

shipping weight is 0.3lbs. It isn't a potato. Unless, it's just the dried skin.

It would qualify for a joke if it was significantly more restrained. Still, incredible as it may be, at least one person seems to have fallen...

It must be a joke, possibly created by a buzzword generator.

Default How about the $10,000 dollars version?

Not that I am saying there is no way this thing might do something, but it is amusing that a twelve months, no itterest payment plan is available for the 10K version.

When I hear HANGER I think of the slang for big bellies hanging over the belt ...

Truly one of the ugliest things I have ever seen, which makes me think it just might work.
