Great, you're the latest person to invent a way to present a 5-15R that
offers something besides 120VAC.  This is neither new nor novel, but it
*is* dangerous and risky, and in no way "solves the problem."

No, this does NOT present 208v at a 5-15R. Don't believe me, buy one and put a voltmeter across it.

I'll leave the FUD to others.
