  • Many power strips are GARBAGE. Open one up. You will not find individual receptacles. Strips of brass, wrinkled to fit plugs. I've thrown out so many power strips with MELTED plastic around the holes it isn't funny. Those monsters are dangerous.
  • Thanks for the reminder, especially with the Christmas season arriving.
    It's easy to plug too many lights & things into a power strip.
