This seems like how you get burns places you don’t want burns.
Hot.
This strikes me as so potentially dangerous that it shouldn’t be shared.
Especially in the ass, we all should know that glass and ass don’t mix well. Just ask a certain guy on the Internet.
High Voltage up the asshole risk.
Very doubtful. For one, these only run off 120 v here in the US, and they are often stepped down to a voltage the filament can handle better. All of the wiring leads to the bulb holder, which is insulated from the rest of it. The glass component she is touching is nonconductive, so literally the only way for her to get shocked is if there is a short to the stand and she bottoms the lamp out.
I suppose if there is sufficient lubrication, that might increase the chances? Still super unlikely though, and worst case scenario, from there the current can’t cross her heart.
Aren’t these normally sealed with a bottle cap?
Seems really uncomfortable/dangerous
They are but they also have a plastic cover cap to go with it.
But the plastic cover just sits on top, doesn’t it?
Looks like it
