Okay, if I did that, I would have to bend a shepherd's hook and that would have taken me maybe like 10 minutes. That just took me 1 minute. I know you're going to call me soft hands or that's the easy way out. Well, I'm telling you right now, this is practical and this is UL approved. So long story short, if you want to get an outlet installed faster, use a lever edge outlet. All right, see you in the next one.
