Hug-A-Plug for tight spaces

admin — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 22:00:55 +0000

It’s entirely possible this Hug-A-Plug shouldn’t be that big of a deal. After all, it’s just a plug. However, if you’ve ever tried to use one of the plugs that gives you more outlet room when you have furniture right against the wall, you understand why it is a big deal. This plug would take a whole lot of headache out of your life just by making one task a little more simple. The Hug-A-Plug was obviously created to make it hug the wall. This way you don’t have an adapter, then plugs sticking out of the adapter, causing all of that to stick out. This was made for USA outlets, so those with other types aren’t going to be able to use this, obviously. Surely there is something similar in other parts of the world though. You can purchase this cheap little wall adapter for $4.95 through CyberGuys
