4 way adapter
Hi is there such a thing as a flat 4 way adapter that plugs into the wall
socket to power all my TV and video equipment? Something like a 4 way extension lead but without the lead and plugs straight into the socket? Thanks Ron |

Thanks Ron Y'mean like this ....? http://timeshomedirect.easylifegroup...ducts/2324.asp quote Plug the adaptor into any standard socket to have 4 sockets instantly. With no trailing wires it's safe and easy to install, all you need do is simply plug it in. Each socket has its own on/off switch so you're in control at all times. It's fitted with a built-in safety fuse to avoid overloading and is suitable for all UK 13amp 3-pin sockets. Includes surge protector. /quote The device seems to be a plug with a extended four gang switched socket assembly suspended from the plug. {I've been meaning to purchase one for the use you've described ... plus Christmas-tree lights.
