Is to much plugged into this?

Wow...having that much plugged in would make me nervous about a fire.

If you are to plug that much in, make sure the plug extender is surge protected. Is it?

If its not, you could be posing a very big fire risk if a unit was to suddenly blow somewhere because of the amount thats in it.

The only thing that really matters is how much your drawing.

None of you guys have that much stuff drawing power, it's all small crap. I doubt you guys are going over over 500 watts. It also matters how much you have plugged into the circut, most rooms will only have one circut in your houses.

For me on one circut, I have 2 switches, 2 hub's, one Cisco router (831, beefy router :D ), WRT54GL Wireless Access point, 1X Server, Backup UPS, 1X modem and Wirewerks fiber converter.

Guess how much power this uses?
68.2 Watts, I just measured. And we can put a total of 1800 watts or so on your standard 15 amp circut.
