You don't have any other power point nearby except that one?
Even if few feet away got another point then can use extension cable. I think better to spread the load rather than plug so many things into 1 point.
Not enough AC Plug Points

QUOTE(visigoth90 @ Jul 14 2009, 06:14 PM) Go to Ace HArdware, get the electrical rail called Eubiq. You only need 1 power point wires to connect an entire rail for more power outlets. I have looked into Eubiq before. While it is quite stylish, to me it is not worth the money.Am using this at home, a lot more neater and looks better. refer to website:http://www.eubiq.com/index.php?id=270 The Eubiq system has 2 components - the rail and the plugs. The rail is charged by length, I think 1m is RM300-something. Then you have to buy the plugs to fit into the rails. Each plug also not cheap. The main limitation is that one rail draws power only from 1 set of wires. If you are retrofitting the rail in your house, it means 1 rail will draw from one of your old 13A power points. So the whole Eubiq rail can supply power equal to one 13A power point only - it ends up as a glorified power strip. It is not the same as having 2 or more 13A power points. If you really want the Eubiq rail to be able to handle high current and lots of watts, you have to wire it with a high current wire from the fusebox. Then it can handle more than 13A. But this involves a big re-wiring job and many people might not want to do this. This post has been edited by jchong: Jul 14 2009, 10:24 PM |
