I’ve been looking for a powerstrip just like this. I google searched the powerstrip and your blog was the second listing to appear. Can you tell me where you found that? Thanks so much. -Angie Tyner
I got mine at a hardware store in India. I also saw them in every other hardware store in Ethiopia. The quality of mine wasn’t great, but it did the trick. The thing with getting those abroad is that you have to make sure that your electronics have voltage converters built in. Most things (laptops, camera battery chargers, etc.) do, so it’s not much of an issue. I think you can also mail order them in the US, but you’ll pay a good $25 to $30 for it.

Hey Angie,
I got mine at a hardware store in India. I also saw them in every other hardware store in Ethiopia. The quality of mine wasn’t great, but it did the trick. The thing with getting those abroad is that you have to make sure that your electronics have voltage converters built in. Most things (laptops, camera battery chargers, etc.) do, so it’s not much of an issue. I think you can also mail order them in the US, but you’ll pay a good $25 to $30 for it.
Hope this helps!
