Under the bed? I guess I just had to stick my nose in this. I put a GCFI in the bathroom. Is something wet living under the bed?
It's hard to explain - it's on the support for the bed. I think the rationale is this: there's a curtain/door thing that slides across the aisle and separates the living space from the bed/bath area. The bath is on one side of the aisle, the shower on the other. When you open up both doors it makes like a little bed/bath suite back there. The outlet is near the shower, by a mirror. I guess they envisioned using a hair dryer or whatever back there. The GFCI outlet by the bed also feeds the vanity light and outlet across the aisle in the bathroom.
Anyhow, I appreciate the replies. I'm going to swap that outlet out for a new one and see what happens (there's only one in there so I'll have to buy one).
Maybe some day I'll get a PSW inverter, but for now all I need it for is a cheap LCD TV, a boombox and cell phone chargers. It seems to be okay for those purposes.
