I'm just curious to know how you plan to use that many at the same time... I can see 12-16, maybe 20.

why do you need so many outlets in one place? besides, putting so many appliances on one outlet might trip the breaker.

Agreed.


However, if you choose to use that many, you could build your own... customized to whatever size you need.

I doubt such a device exists since the 30 devices you plug into it would probably draw more than 15 amps...

Edit: Note, this is an L5-20P plug on the input side, so it won't just plug in to your wall unless you make special arrangements.

Edit again: Here is a 24 outlet one with a plain old 5-15 input.

I could use one of these. My dorm has two outlets on my side of the room and, due to fire code, we are only allowed to plugin one power strip to each outlet. Right now, I'm stuck at 12 outlets. :(

I want to order one of these just so I can get shipped a package that is more than 6 feet long and probably about 5" x 5" otherwise!

That's rough. Between my roommate and 2 suitemates, we have access to about 24 plugs (about 6 plugs for me to use) and that doesn't include surge protectors we use.
