I read this quote on another newsgroup and I was wondering if anyone here has heard the same thing or can shed some light on the idea.
".....be sure your iron is not plugged into the same circuit as your computerized sewing machines. The wattage draw from the iron can ruin a sewing machine. I read about this in Quilters' Newsletter Magazine....."
I have had my computerized sewing machine for over 2 1/2 yrs and as far as I know the outlets are on the same circuit. I have one on one side of the room and one on the other side. At least they are not on the same outlet, if that makes any difference. DH worked for the Northern Indiana Public Service Co., but had retired nearly 8 yrs ago and hadn't heard of any such thing, but then he is not an electrical engineer either. Just curious if anyone has heard anything similar or if some one somewhere is just trying to throw a scare into everyone. Marlys in Indiana
