Why not just uprate the cable and fit a heatsink to the mains plug?

I now have an image of the plug in the socket with a big sheet of copper
stuck on its back. LOL!!! I Like it. :-)


I see an Athlon CPU heatsink plus cooler fan on there, held in place
with plastic ties round the plug, which is 2mm out to enable this. Fan
is run off a wallwart in the next socket. The cable ties creep,
ensuring poor thermal contact, the fan blows the hot air off the
heatsink onto the wart, and the plastic round the plug pins slowly
turns a shade darker each year.
