The models I was talking about have a wall-ward with cord that snaps
into the unit. They can be plugged in directly, or the wart can be
popped out and the unit wall mounted. That leaves a cord from the wart
to the unit that can be wrapped on a toroid. This is however a diff
model than the one you have.
