If they are truly going to stop us from daisy-chaining power strips, they better provide us with at least 4 outlets per pit. Either that, or someone needs to point me to a 20-outlet power strip/squid. Or, can we use a triple-tap outlet adapter in each outlet in a power strip? This is silly.
Yes, this made me laugh too. The number of power strips is unimportant. Only the load matters. Yet more misguided efforts at "safety" based on no facts.
