In UK we call those "power strips" adapters. I dunno why. We call them bar extension leads and a few other random things.
I personally would never rely on something like that as my surge protector.
Although lets do a comparison here. Your video, have you ever saw this happen? I'm pretty sure you will tell me yes. Or saw something blow up may be in less dramatic fashion.
Well I've never saw anything like that happen. May be 30 years ago or more this type of thing might have happened but in my experience it doesn't seem to be common.
I am still thinking of power conditioner, but the fact I'll need something else added to it is off putting. I need a mobile as f*ck rig that I can take on a plane with me. My band does not have a tour bus and private jet so I need to practical about this kind of thing. ( first gig tour is 23.10.2016 Café De Meister, Burgemeester, Lemmensstraat, 250, Geleen, Netherlands)
Right so I could get a power conditioner (mjmp - sponsored by Furman
) and cut the plug of a "power strip" or bar adapter as we call them, and plug this into the PC and then I could then take 9v adapter and plug it into the bar adapter? Ok it's a solution but f*ck I do not want anymore shit to carry!!!
edit: could I use this
