Somewhat odd question

Post by Kevman »

So I'm tired of using my flimsy power strip that doesn't even fit all of my systems on it. I found a nice power strip awhile ago but it can't seem to find it. It was a staples brand power strip and it is seen at :55 on this AVGN video:

Anyone know where to find these or the exact name of it.

I use the Power Squids too. A little cumbersome, but they work so well.

Octopus Octopus avoid the tangles.

Agree with Jrecee above. This can handle those direct power transformer plugs.
Great place is under shelf or table, plugs are then out of the way.

Hmm, that looks kinda like the Dongly thing that Dr. Insano gives out with his anti-magic field generator kit.

I myself, use a regular power strip (with a warranty) and when I have to use a bulky DC box, I use those 2-inch extension cords. (I'd take a picture of mine, buut then I wouldn't power to my router) :P

FOUND IT!

I was looking for this specific one:

It is the same as the staples one, they must have rebranded it.

I have this beautiful 10-outlet one I got a few years ago under my desk. Works like a dream. Forget the brand, and don't want to unplug everything just to check.
