Outlets are cheap, but time is more expensive. I'm thinking about putting

just for the air cleaner or whatever random thing needs to be plugged in up
there. Am I just wasting time by installing outlets at that height?

Naturally, I'm going to do quite a few at 54" and 16", but it's the ones up
high I'm wondering about.

Whatever works for you but just remember not to put too many outlets on
one circuit. Up to 8 on 15 amps and 10 on 20 amp.

Why the limit? I don't think there is anything in NEC to that effect. If the wiring is the right size and has a proper breaker, the circuit is protected regardless of how many outlets are on the circuit.
