If the price was more reasonable, this manufacturer would sell today more than they can possibly produce in a year :)

Of the times that they're on Woot, they're frequently like five bucks? :)

We used to have a little t.v. for camping. (Why, I don't know) It was connected to an extra car battery. Worked fine. I thought it was stupid. But it did come in handy during a hurricane evacuation.

I think I see the Palm Pro (USB) charger there.

That's the reason why UK mains plus are individually fused. You don't really want trailing cables running at mains voltage with little or no protection. The picture is US 110V outlets. I have two versions of a panasonic battery charger: the US one (which is a wall-wart, with folding prongs), and the UK version (which is a figure-of-eight socket on the charger, and a bundled mains voltage cable, and a proper normal moulded, fused mains plug). Admittedly, the US version would be more portable - were it not to keep losing contact.Still doesn't explain why Panasonic didn't design the camera so it could charge over USB (or why they had a non-standard USB socket on the camera, or why the camera offers up the contents of the memory card to the USB attached computer as read-only). Sure, charging over USB might not be fast, but at least it's a standard. At least nowadays, the phone handset manufacturers (apart from Apple) are waking up to a standard charger connector.

Hate to burst your bubble - but if you only paid $5, then chances are that the maker won't guarantee it. Most powerstrips come with some sort of guarantee and promise some form of reimbursement if their product fails - but the cheap ones don't. Unless you don't think you'll ever own any electronics worth more than $50, you might want to consider investing in another powerstrip. They last a good long time anyway - I've had mine for at least 10 years. Never would've bought another one if not for the fact that I needed more outlets.

Not really an option for a UPS with outlets too close together, and no I don't want to plug in a Powersquid to one outlet on my UPS I don't really think it's designed to have the entire load on one outlet.
