Mike, wouldn't that be true if the chassis were tied to earth ground through a three wire power cord? Otherwise there is no complete circuit with a two wire cord. Or is it just smoke and mirrors? My concern is if you leave the unit plugged in all the time, there's power on the caps all the time. What can go wrong??
