Sometimes, unscrupulous owners will wire the Hobbs to the master switch,
so you get charges whenever the MS is ON.


It's not unscrupulous if you know about it up front.

Unscrupulous is when you go to rent a U-haul truck for $19.99 a day, but
they consider a day to be the calender day(s) you use it. Pick it up at 8:30
Friday night, drop it off at 8:00 Saturday night, and that's 2 days. The
best one was when they said the would charge me a $50 cancellation fee. I
drove down, picked up the keys, and returned the truck thirty seconds later.
cost me $19.99 for the 'day'.
