USB powered wall hook

[Homer J Simpson]

Why?

[Gromitt]

Have you looked at the video?

It does actually explain why.

[stj]

everything has to be USB these days - it's like a religion to some people.

[coppercone2]

this is just fucking dumb

With the ubiquity of USB this actually a pretty clever solution for providing a solidly mounted hook that's easily removed.  If 3M Command hooks weren't a thing, this could be really useful.  But they are, so it's kind of left without much a niche to fill.  Actually, this still might be superior for rough surfaces, as long as there's enough glue, that's one area where Command hooks and similar tapes don't do so well.

V2 is going to have wifi and an app.

Then your hook will be ready to remove when you get home.

[coppercone2]

you know you can melt that glue with a cigarette lighter right?

it marginally aids in removal, if you don't have access to a knife.

This is going to win the prize as the most retarded product of the year !   

Or can somebody present something more stupid than this ?
