2-pin only multiplug/ power strip

[Caliph]

Does such a thing exist in SA? I'm looking for 5-way or 6-way multiplug that only has 2-pin sockets. The socket is generally known as 'Europlug' or CEE 7/16 (Type C). Here's an example:

Haven't come across anything like that, best bet would be to get a socket like this, and make your own multiplug.

Not a bad idea - I haven't seen this around though.

Ellies makes a 4 way one. I have one.

There is also Powerstrip which is a modular socket system. So you choose what sockets you want.

3 pin new SA standard, will be more futureproof

its only a requirement on new builds ,is still fully compatible with a standard 2 pin ,but more flexible ,old 2 pin wont be going anywhere fast in SA.

Doesn't it get hot inside that little box?
