Where do I find those recessed plug outlets for the outside of my cab!
rackoon:
Do ya think that I might smoke one of those things with a 27" monitor and two PC power supplys (one drives 100 LEDs and car amp and the other is for PC.) Those things only are rated for 15 amps. :dizzy:

Here's the link to Mouser. I used 'D' on two cabinets.

A neat idea...but I don't understand how you're hooking everything up to it. (?) And, are you using a smart strip?
bfauska:
You are probably fine with 2 power supplies and a monitor. What is the wattage rating on the equipment?
Assuming you are in the U.S. the total wattage divided by the voltage (120) is the amperage.
For example if you have 2 400w power supplies and the monitor uses 200w (I think that's a high estimate) then you have a total of 1000 watts, divide that by 120 volts and you get 8.34 amps.
15 amps is quite a bit actually, most household circuits are 15 or 20 and supply a whole room.
I really like that idea for a plug, real clean when you are moving the cab, and if the cord gets damaged it's easy to replace.
Later,

Yes, I will be using a smart strip hooked up to one of these power entry modules. It just looks clean and professional.
When people look at it for the first time I want them to say "damn, you built that!"
Thanks for the input guys. I finally know what to call the thing and that was half the battle. :cheers:
