I Just Need To Dry My Hands, Not Trying To Go Deaf!

in life •  6 years ago 

Implementation flaw: on the right, a motion sensing hand dryer. On the left, a motion sensing towel dispenser. It gets loud in here (while wasting resources these devices are supposed to save).

The Dyson Airblades on the right have been noted as one of the most toxic of all hand drying appliances, spreading around WAY more germs than paper towels or traditional air blowers - up to 10 feet around with air blasts reaching 430 mph!

On the other hand, I once saw a motion activated paper towel dispenser in an interstate rest area that had dropped practically an entire roll of towels onto the floor. Seems that there was a slight breeze blowing into the restroom which caused the towel to flutter beneath the sensor, continually activating the dispensing mechanism.

I have time without seeing a dispenser or hand dryer in a Venezuelan public bathroom. If your income is enough to buy paper, load paper in your portfolio hahaha

The airdryers are preferred anyways. After all if you wash your hands you shouldn't have too many germs fly away anyways. Plus I think germs are the last thing in our mind when we enter a restroom.

I really don't get it why there is a need for an auto paper towel dispenser. I hope they won't one day come out with an auto toilet paper dispenser. There really isn't any room to allow a malfunction. If I need my toilet paper, I need my toilet paper.

lol this just shows us humans trying to over engineer everything

So many options! Yeah those are placed wat too pose to one another. It's kind of funny in a way when you think about having to make a decision in the bathroom based on your own values. "Do I waste resources or spread everyone's germs around?" Hmm tough decision.
