Broken: Product feature list
Richard Dressner pointed this one out. Growinglifestyle.com carries a Toro 12-Volt Cordless Trimmer with a strange item on the feature list. Richard writes:
It's a battery-powered trimmer, so how come "Exclusive extension cord-lock prevents disconnects"?
If it's for the charger, genius, then why does it say it's for an extension cord?
The charger plug is a small round plug, not a standard extension cord. You couldn't plug an extension cord into it if you wanted to.
the extension cord won't plug into the charger, so even if it does work, you could only trim hedges 3 feet away.
How do you know that they didnt include an extension for the charger? And why are we arguing about it?

i can see how that's broken, but did you ever think of it to be for the charger? on alot of cordless machines, you can still use it even when it's charging
