Another, all show, no go fancy wood end table style, I have is one I picked up on trash day, near my home.
The thing is in real nice condition. The only thing, that was wrong was the AC plug and U ground adaptor was all burnt up. The plug and receptacle, must've been in flames. How they let this thing run without smelling the burning wiring is hard to believe. It was the neutral terminal.
All it needed was a replacement plug.
One reason, the code now requires arc-fault breakers in most areas of the home, as an ordinary breaker, even a GFI breaker, won't detect this fault.
