Why do they make power adapters so large that it’s difficult/impossible to plug something into the adjacent plug?
In: Technology
* The size of the “block” has to do with the stuff inside.
* So if you didn’t want to block nearby outlets, you could instead put the block in the middle of the wire.
* But now you have an issue where if the outlet is too high off the floor, the block is now dangling in mid-air and potentially pulling the wire out of the outlet.
* Worse it could pull the wire only partly out of the outlet and now live current is exposed on bare metal connectors.
* So the best and safest option is to block some outlets.
