emilygrace Posted August 21, 2004 #1 Share Posted August 21, 2004 I know the outlet that is in the bathroom is for electric shavers only, but my question is, is it only for men's razors or can you plug in a woman's razor? I know this sounds like a stupid question, but I'd rather risk looking (or sounding) stupid than blow out all the fuses on the ship! Thanks for your help. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrm9999 Posted August 21, 2004 #2 Share Posted August 21, 2004 Theres no reason to believe that it would not work. Both should comsume a similar amount of electricty. I think the big concern is items like hair dryers that use a lot of electricy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmfan Posted August 21, 2004 #3 Share Posted August 21, 2004 You can plug other things in as well. I used it for my curling iron and also for my battery charger. It worked fine for both of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanetMarie Posted August 21, 2004 #4 Share Posted August 21, 2004 DH is an electrical contractor and he says you will be fine, that there are GFI protectors to prevent any type of problems. Enjoy your upcoming cruise! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rthiebes Posted August 21, 2004 #5 Share Posted August 21, 2004 Out of curiosity...why do they say for electric razors only? I was intending to plug in my nightlight/air freshener in the bathroom, but because it said that, I didn't do it...plugged it into a regular outlet in the room...could someone explain?

kimark Posted August 21, 2004 #6 Share Posted August 21, 2004 This may sound stupid too, but I tried to plug in my blow dryer in that socket and I couldn't get it in. How do you do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaumD Posted August 21, 2004 #7 Share Posted August 21, 2004 Your blow dryer probably has a plug with one prong a little wider than the other. At home, you have probably tried to plug something in and had to turn the plug over so it would fit. The outlet in the bathroom may not accept the wider prong (in either direction). Most higher wattage items have this polarized type plug. As far as using a nightlight in the bathroom, the plug is tied into the light switch and if the bath light is off, the plug is dead, therefore making the nightlight in the bathroom useless.
