I’m not an electrician, nor do I play one on TV, but this I like. It’s a re-designed UK electrical plug, one that’s much thinner and far more friendly to today’s portable, hi-tech toys than the standard plug. Apparently the actual UK plug is a cumbersome jerk, and tends to be a drag on people’s laptops, phones, and other gadgetry. Who wants that?

As that photo shows, it folds, making it easier to store than that three pronged monster.

On the surface it may not seem like much, but only to our laymen eyes: it won some sort of fancy UK design award.
