I have used one for years. Every place I worked in had at least one languishing somewhere in a cupboard. I use mine at home about once every month. They are useful things if used with a little common sense. I have replaced the fuse with a 3 Amp, as I have had on occasion had a bit of a flash and bang when closing the lid, due to some unseen fault. Gives you a bit of a fright. Just don't leave the bare cable tails too long.
