New Power Adapter Fixes Space Issues

Tributaries has just announced a solution to all or your oversized power adapter woes. The new T12 power strip features 12 different outlets and eight of them are located on the edge and can be rotated by as much as 90 degrees. The adapter also provides surge protection for RJ-11, RJ-45, and Coax if you so desire.

For $120, I'd rather buy a couple regular power strips that would fit just as many, if not more power bricks, and have a bunch of money left over.

and make sure you hide them.. we had some of thses (not these exactly but the same concept) and when the fire marshal came through for the yearly inspection he saw them and gave us a citation for having an extention cord pluged into a power strip and also gave us a citation for having a power strip pluged into an extetion cord.

apprently you are allowed to doit temporaily (liek using a drill or something) but you can't doit and have it sit

nor can you have a power strip pluged into another strip.. OR have a power strip pluged into a UPS or a UPS pluged into a power strip

we ended up going to walmart and getting some (very nice amazingly) 15' and 25' corded power strips.. for the second issue and then just added another strip running over for the first issue.

i still can't belive he fine'd us for that though..

A makeshift fix at best

What we really need is standardized low voltage supplies, target devices and connectors. Then the "outlet" strip could have a single, high efficiency converter with multiple outputs.
