I just counted and I have 37 power plugs either in the two UPSs or in a whole bunch of power strips just for my two computers and all the various peripherals and storage devices. Not only is the current setup a mess and most unsightly but all the wires get in the way. I actually need all the devices, so winnowing them out is not a solution.
What do other people do with a large number of power plugs? There has to be a better way.
I was thinking of having an electrician run a new line from the service entrance and build a big cabinet with 20 or so two plug outlets in it. Seems extreme but all these power strips, some of them daisy-chained, does not seem like a good or safe solution. Most of the stuff has very low wattage and not everything is used at once, obviously.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
