What Do You Call A Power Strip With A Removable Cable?

[Bryan R. Tyler]

I had one of these years ago and wanted to get another, but nothing's coming up on Google searches with "power strip" and "removable cable" or "removable cord," so I'm guessing I'm calling it the wrong thing. Anyone know/

That's a terrible punch line. I didn't laugh at all.

Surge Protector? Try that and also Power Conditioner.

Actually, that's about right- I think the one I had had a plug more like the standard computer/amplifier power cables, though I could be wrong. That one's certainly pricey.

Nah, those are both functions of power strips- nothing to do with a detachable cable.

I'd call it "not up to code"


(Yeah, I know, I'm not funny either...)

Is that like "power walking" - power stripping...

So a power strip would certainly involved removable cable if that's what you want to call it....

Might be a G string involved somewhere as well!!

This thread is so injurious to my sense of humor, I'm gonna have to take it behind the barn and shoot it out of mercy.

Most power strips do have a surge protector built in, but certainly not all. And if you find a power strip that has Power Conditioning, you 're doing good. That is usually a circuit found in much pricier UPS device, which usually DO have a removable (PC/Amplifier type 3 prog removable cable).

You were asking for input, and having a bit of experience with these types of device, I thought I was answering that question. Silly me.

Well, whether or not a strip has surge protection has no bearing on whether it has a removable C14 cable, and UPSs aren't power strips (WAY too big)- but I appreciate you trying to help
