"miser" is wrong. Doesn't refer to a person.
Should we add けち as a gikun reading? It's relatively common in Aozora, and NHK日本語発音アクセント辞典 has "けち{吝嗇}".

Google images do indeed show this term as the clip for 
attaching wiring, and I don't know of it being called a staple 
in English. However Daijrin has this as ステープル, although 
the images for that word primarily show the Hotchkiss variety. 
We could (a) have two entries, effectively ignoring Daijirin, 
or (b) combine them with 2 (or 3) senses and the electrical 
sense limited to ステップル. Suggestions?

  Comments: 
In Japanese, a "ステップル" is a fixture which attaches 
electrical cables to wooden building materials, so it's 
debatable whether to include the general word "staple" as 
a translation for this. The normal "staples" used to 
attach pieces of paper together are not called by this 
name.

"VVF cable" is fake English, although I'm not sure it 
qualifies as wasei-eigo. This form of cable is the 
absolutely standard form of electrical cabling used for 
wiring homes etc. in Japan, but it's not called this 
outside Japan.
