If you have wire strippers you could just cut off the end and put a new one on

Would you kid dare to take a hammer to it?
A guy named Daniel.
That thing is pointless. You can just cut the plug off and wire it onto another plug or since most modern devices have detachable wires on them and they pretty much us the same connector you can just steal the plug end off the back of a tv or whatever and use that.

lol these locks are really stupid, you could just get a padlock trough a hole in the prong and it does the same job of preventing it from being used

If I was a kid I’d have stripped the cable and attached it to the plug via the cables
Impossible_Fishy
Think about it Xboxes and PCs have removable external wires so you can just grab a new cable
Sergio Aragón Iturri
I don't think this particular lock is made to prevent anybody from using the device, I mean, it clearly could break open but people using this would be for example, in a house as LPL stated, to prevent a game console from being plugged or in the professional life, as a LOTO device, to prevent any equipment frombeing plugged and people who see it won't even try to force it.

I have a sincere question for you. I plan on making a lichtenberg machine which can be very deadly. I was considering using a lock very similar to the one you just picked in this video. Because the machine could be very deadly in the hands of someone not knowing what they're doing I wanted to make sure it was secure, what would you suggest ?

Wafer locks are terrible. I had a locking gas cap, I went to unlock it, and the core just pulled out of the gas cap with little effort. A wafer was what held the core in.

On most appliances, you can unplug the power cord from the device and use a different power cable.
Eden England
a one minute video that just explains what a plug lock is, then says "open wafer lock with wafer lock opener"
Justin Berg
Just take your kids gaming console is you don't want them playing it. Or take the power cable with you to work. A lock out tag out option seems like an unnecessary use of money for that purpose if that's what your sole use for it is...I mean, most people have light flat screen nowadays so you could even just carry the tv somewhere. Also, simply confiscating the console really makes a much better point
Melancholicmelon
How to truly ground the kids, just lock al the chargers in the house don't take the phone mess up the chargers.

Even if a kid opens it, they’re still probably going to get caught by their parents and get grounded for longer.

mom: "Hey billy, did you do your homework???" billy: "yes I did" mom: "then why is the xbox turned on and the lock I used to secure the power cord lying there smashed to pieces?!?!" Seriously though, don't most entertainment devices have detachable power cords?.. couldn't you just buy a cheap spare power cord as a kid and use that whenever your parents 'lock up' the original power cord?
ayporos
@Ice Neko I just checked and I can order all types of power cords online for less than 5 bucks. I do not consider 5 bucks expensive. I guess for a kid however it might be a big deal..
Ice Neko

Challenge: put locks on everything in the house. Everything. And only pick them open.
Winforworkgroups
Or you can cut the plug and wire it to another plug... Although honestly If my parents were to put this in my computer (or console if I had one) I would use a different cord (finally some good use for those old cords!)
Acecool
In most cases you can just replace the cord. So this really doesn't do anything. Also - does it short both plugs together? If so, that could be cause for concern. If it doesn't, then it also exposes enough to get a connection on the ends... or, you can always use a splice connector.

If it's used for locking gaming consoles, I have a bridge to sell you. Their cords are detachable, so they could just switch them out and when they're done playing, put the original back in.

As a lock out device for faulty machinery it's better than a tag and a zip tie. Usually it is turned off at the board too.

When i was younger 11-12 y/o my parents were always locking my PS3 with that lock. And by the time i realised that i could ''lockpick'' that. I just start pushing key of my bycycle lock into it and that was how i played it for yrs and yrs...
Sils Wei
I mean, it probably works on 99% of kids or applicable situations. And if they break it open, it's obviously a dead giveaway the device was used. AKA stop doing locks that are meant to be cheap and simple or LOTOs

cut the fucking wire and put a new plug in. Jokes on you dad,

In the theoretical “kid wants to play his/her (insert gaming console here) scenario”, there are different ways you could get past this lock. Me being the more electrically inclined individual, I probably would have just wired in another power cord to the device that needed power.

Imagine pick your way into someone’s house, and you see about 1000 locks on the door.
Warhawk402
If it was stronger lock you could still the cut plug off another cord and splice it onto the cord that had the lock on it... or you could make something to poke into the cable and bypass it without anyone noticing.
This would need to be shaped radically different for use outside of USA
If you have wire strippers you could just cut off the end and put a new one on
