In case you're looking for a way to introduce more EMF interference into your rig.

This looks to me like the kind of thing that starts fires after a few months use, lovely.

@Princess Sparkle Pony: Seconded.

Power Squid doesn't have any sliding parts that might wear out.

@madbikeskilz: Agreed. So its slides, yeah, but why angle the outlets? All I can think of is to have you spend $ now on this. Then release the "successor" with major "improvements." See: Straight Outlets.

@madbikeskilz:

If only they'd do a full 90 degree rotation from a "normal" SP, hell you wouldn't even have to slide em very often. and the one on the end should ALWAYS point away from the others.

Pretty clever! Still not as brilliant as the Squid one, though.

I think it would have been better if they didnt make the plugs go in at a 40 degree angle, it defeats the purpose.
