Hey guys, got hopefully an easy question.
To power my rack I need 3 sockets: 1 for my power conditioner, 1 for a 12V adaptor for wireless, and a 9V adaptor for a pro rack G.
Unless someone can point me elsewhere, I figured the best idea is to have a 4-way extension lead attached to my rack tray. But I don't want the huge long cable attached to the 4-way dragging around inside my rack.
So, is it possible to do the following:
1. Buy a 4-way extension lead and chop off the cable so there is only a couple of inches of cable left.
2. Buy a male IEC adaptor and solder it to the 4-way in place of the plug.
3. Then fix this to my rack so it's always there with my various bit of equipment plugged into it.
4. then whenever I need to power it, I can take a standard female IEC power cable and plug it into my modified 4-way.
I've done a diagram to make what I'm talking about a lot easier to understand:
Thanks for any help!
