Perhaps the group can help me with this annoying problem. I have too
many things which require 13.8 volts to conveniently plug into one power
supply. The result is lots of wall warts, several small 13.8 volt
supplies on/under the operating table, and general confusion when I need
to unhook something. I seem to recall an article some years ago, I
believe in QST, suggesting a way to consolidate things, but a search
through my QST CD ROMS has been fruitless. Surely there is a way to make
a nice strip, put multiple red and black terminal posts on it, attach it
to my 40 amp supply, and attach all my stuff to that. Perhaps there is
even a ready-made product along these lines. I am not opposed to
constructing something, I just don't want to inadvertently create a fire
hazzard while trying to make my shack a neater place. Any ideas will be
greatfully received and acknowledged. My best to all, Steve, NN4T.
