Finally, a surge
generatorprotector worthy of my x-mas tree and multimedia setup.😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Everyone’s laughing at the fire hazard, but I would unironically buy this if it was a power strip and not a surge protector because I’m already basically doing this with four separate power strips into a single uninterruptible power supply for all of my retro video game consoles, modem, router, roku, and my television. The trick is basically nothing is ever on at any given time so right now the current output is only 36 watts.
What in the living hell is this?
Okay, I’m actually onboard with those things. It’s usually a cable with a single wall plug on one end and four C13 plugs at the other. So you could plug in two monitors, a desktop PC and a printer, say, with just one socket. They’re a lot neater than having a whole power strip and four cables. I’ve also seen ones that split one C14 into four C13s but I’m not as sure how I feel about those.
You labeled like, 3 things. I’m gonna be sick.
The only label I can see just says “Scart” (oh, and wifi I guess)
SCART is a european (french, technically) audio/video connector and standard. It’s sort of like composite/component video in the US, except it’s far better, so retro game enthusiasts love it.
Hah! It’s a rats nest that I basically dumped back there the last time I moved and the labels are from a long time ago before I had most of the stuff. It’s not like you get a new retro console every day so I’m almost never back there. That’s kind of the whole point. I plug everything in one time and then I don’t touch it until I move.
You’re killing me, Jessica
I have the 22 port, actual, real version of this. It’s leveled up my cable organization game.
Unfortunately these high capacity power strips always have surge protector functionality in them, and it’s a very bad idea to daisy-chain surge protectors because they can interrupt each other trying to stop the current and all of your stuff will get fried.
Power strips are fine as long as you aren’t exceeding the maximum load, but they never come with as many plugs so that’s how I ended up with four different power strips and some 1 foot extension cords for all those damn wall warts.
All of that is going into the handful of battery backup plugs on the uninterruptible power supply so if I’m ever playing a retro game and the power goes out, I don’t lose my progress! You know how evil games used to be; half the time you can’t even save the damn game lol
I haven’t done an analysis of my power strip / surge protector layout, but my gaming system is just plugged into a UPS with six ports.
The 22 port one is for my server closet. I’d love to show you, but for some reason my client won’t allow me to upload photos.

Behold, my final form:
That last part just saying Fire is the funniest part
dorm, gaming room, fire.
Hmmmmmm. One those is more likely to happen then the rest.
Surprisingly appropriate use of “then”
Grammatical whiplash.
Dorm > gaming room > fire
Hmmmmm, did you have a stroke whilst typing that?
We call it the firestarter 3000
It actually looks like a skyscraper with sad faces looking out of the window :(
Saved me money in flints and steel… did not save me money in housing… 3 stars
Is this going to get bigger every time it’s reposted?
This is how you plug in a harpejji
Ah yes, for my 66… 13w? Devices.
I guess a bunch of LED strings and maybe a phone charger (low-speed 5v 3a only).
Edit: also, what is 12-14 usb charging ports? You’re not sure how many there are? Does it vary from package to package?
The 12-14 USB ports is my favorite part, like they couldn’t be bothered to count, or it varies.
I love how the cord is only 6" long, so you’ve either got to bolt this monstrosity to the wall immediately beside the outlet, or plug it into another extension…
I’d expect this to be used in a factory for product testing, where they probably have sockets on the bench
It also has 71 outlets instead of 66 lol
I might not understand 😅 Or I may have miscounted something. But in the middle there are 5 sockets in a row, there are 10 rows, on each side there are 8 sockets. That does seem to add up to 66 to me. What am I missing?
Lmao I had apparently counted 11 rows instead of 10. Whoops
I’m guessing it varies based on whatever components they had available when they ran that batch on the assembly line?
And, there’s not 66 sockets either
Men only want one thing…
and it’s dangerous as fuck.
It’s only dangerous if the total Amp draw exceeds the cable limit.
I could fill this pretty easily and not break 10A
Can I get the male/male suicide cable and plug it into itself?
The original artist who made this is NanoRaptor, btw. You can find them on Mastodon.
Well, devices like that are sold by a Russian design studio since like 2005:
