I have 35 PC's powered up in my room. Don't sweat it ;)
Admittedly I have 2 x 10amp circuits in here, and only use 8 monitors... but
everything has a 10 Amp cutoff and I haven't tripped anything for ages. I
suspect a PC without a monitor is only drawing half an amp or so - does
anyone know? ;)
Cheers,
Marty

Subject: [SLUG] drawing power
i've got 10 pcs in my room. there's 1 extension slipped underneath the
door from another room. is it safe to daisy-chain 10 x6 power adapters and
use them ?
or am i supposed to invest in special extensions, or run more extensions
from other rooms into my room ?
i think a circuit shouldn't have more than 10 amps running off it, and a
typical pc setup with monitor draws about 2 or 3 amps. i don't want to
start a fire.
