> Just a small mid-late month update. Thanks again to everyone who has donated. Small and big all donations make a big difference for our prototyping effort. We are now just waiting on coils and cnc to come through which should be a week or so. We finished clearing away all the rubble from the fire and the new shed is now built and sealed ready to start housing REVR! We have had some very productive discussions and vid calls with people looking to help make REVR happen which we may be able to elaborate on in future. We have also entered the Samsung Solve For Tomorrow comp to promote REVR. There is some more good competition news we can't wait to share. Will have some more substantial updates very soon. - Alex

2. Electrical devices can be "factory-sealed" or "locked-out" by the manufacturer or owner using a plastic tie or a small padlock that runs through one or both of the prong holes. Construction projects or industrial safety requirements may require this type of sealing. For example, a manufacturer might apply a plastic band through the hole and attach it to a tag that says, "You must do blah blah blah before plugging in this device." The user cannot plug in the device without removing the tag, so the user is sure to see the instructions.

3. There also is a small savings in raw materials (metal) for the manufacturer of the actual plug prong. Every little bit helps!

It has been reported that really old outlets used captive ball bearings and coil springs for the detent, but today it is done with a bump and springy copper contacts.
