    I must have been living under a rock, but I've never seen power boards like this!
    Thanks for posting… clever idea and probably been around for years, but new to me :).

      They're a complete nightmare trying to plug something into under a desk for general use!!
      Ingenious idea however

    • I've had these for about three years.
      Only thing is that the protector falls off occasionally and its PITA to get back on.

  • OP: Might want to fix those TA links😉

    Haven't seen it mentioned yet, but not only are the sockets child-safe, they also prevent dust from ingressing through unused sockets, which over time can be a fire risk.

    • Are you ready to discuss OCD yet or is it too soon?

        Tell that to NSW Fire + Rescue :


        Problems with power boards can arise from:

        • Overloading the power board.
        • Dust build up in unused points.

        Tips

        • Place power boards on their sides to prevent dust build up in unused points.
    • Excellent. I have a powerpoint inside my roof powering my POE switch connected to my IP Cameras. Will throw this up there.

  • I tried to price match at my local bunnings but they refused to price match as this is clearance item

      Paige match against who?

      The Bunnings website has them for $4.85

  • For what it's worth, I've found these a total pain in the arse to use and wouldn't buy another.

      You can remove the protective caps to make it a normal power board.

  • These are great if it's very easily accessible because you do need to ram the plugs in a bit.
    Couldn't imagine this being fun behind a TV or under the deal though..

    • You can remove the protective caps to make it a normal power board.

  • I bought 2 of those there price matching Spotlight. Let the market force be with you.

    At a glance I'd say that the length of the cord is about 90cm's, please don't sue me, I'm only eyeballing it
