I've done a more dangerous version of that before, take an old cord off
something broke, strip the wires on the end with out the plug and loop it
through or/and solder it to the prongs on those plugs and tape that
connection heavily, it works, but I think your idea would be much better
lol. My way works, but it can be dangerous and looks like hell I'm told. It
does work and help though.
