I'd like to replace them with those big fat meaty ones like those you see in
a hospital.

Googling, they're pretty expensive at $20 to $40 each!

Lowes has not as good ones for $5 to $7 each:

Just curious if I can get the hospital grade plugs at about the Lowes price?

Any suggestions?

Hospital grade devices and fittings vary in price by manufacturer. Leviton is probably the least expensive with Hubbell probably being the most expensive. Reardless, hospital grade devices will be much more expensive than commercial grade devices.

I would go to a local electrical supply company and see what they have.

Why bwould he do that. EVERYBODY knows it's cheaper to buy on-line.
