OldJoe Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I have 3 power cords into one outlet, 1 computer (the other computer is on a ups with has it's power plugged into the other outlet). Got tv, computer (screen also plugged into one of the cords), vhs/dvd/digital box (altho they dont use much power), also got a speaker system (40-140w i think) plugged in and 2 lamps plugged in. I haven't had a problem. Maybe depends on what you're putting there.. But normal stuff shouldn't be a problem. J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff moviesJe trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vieJe ne me reconnais plus dans les gensJe suis juste un cas désespérantEt comme personne ne viendra me réclamerJe terminerai comme un objet retrouvé Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SERG_Troy Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 It's just cause, I had one power outlet, but now it's full with all my computer junk. So there's one socket open left on my outlet, so I was wondering if it was safe to put another power cord, making a total of like, 16 slots. :) Can anyone second what he said? ;) I don't want anything blowing up. :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgelemmons Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Depending on what all you're plugging in, you may want to check that amp rating for the breaker for that outlet. If the breaker has a lower amp rating than what everything you plug in consumes, the breaker will trip and you'll have to go reset it. With new power strips, there's very little change of a fire starting, so the worst you'll do is pop a breaker.

Deathmath Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Yep, just make sure that you don't pop a breaker, otherwise you'll be fine. Thoroughly retired, may still write now and again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
