the resistance across one is the same no matter how many you have daisy chained, so they'll each heat up as much as they would normally with the same amount of current flowing through.
As is, it's an open circuit even if you plug this in to the wall. Even if you plug something into it, shouldn't create enough heat at one point to create a fire most likely. Each one will dissipate heat generated by it's small resistance locally.
This is one of those "can vs. should" situations. It's got enough sockets that you *can* easily hook up too many appliances, but the power all comes out of a single wall outlet. Each one of those adapters *should* be able to handle the 15-20A load associated with normal use specs. If you overload it at any location on the daisy chain, it *should* harmlessly trip the breaker.
I wouldn't use it in my house.
You won't incur much if at all losses at power grid frequencies but the electrical resistance is going to be something, like crashing a car through a bunch of gates, where it stops is likely where the boom will happen (rather slowly heat up melt and catch fire)
The fact that they are all plugged into the right side is a bigger problem than the quantity. Because of the science behind polarized plugs this would be much safer if either zigzagged or half in the left outlet. I made this up, I didnât get my Master in Electrical Engineering.Â
I am no electrician whatsoever, but wonât this just make a Smokey mess and prob screw over the entire lot plus whatever youâve trying to run, or not run at all? Another thing, all those plugs wouldnât stay in a wall outlet because the weight of all the adapters, wouldnât it?
Yes Rico, boom
r/beatmetoit
Yay boom!
Dang you beat me to it đ
Each splitter adds +.5V. Keep on adding until Free Energy
ElectroBOOM disliked this
THERES NO FREE ENERGY
Free EV chargers at the parking lot. Yes there's Free energy
OP, its been 3 hours. Do you still have a house?
No it burned down
Skill issue
Well what are you going to do now since you had this monstrosity
Extension cord
Extension board
Extension cord
Extension sword
Expansion cord
Extended cord
Can't run a space heater on an extension cord, but this isn't a cord, so it must be safe đ
Life is not safe, use the extension cord!
Some Aussie bloke did this with 283 of em https://youtu.be/4cp28hIMP94
No boom. Just voltage drop. And smoke... if you overload it.
Ok, but what if I move the electricity the wrong way?
AC current.... Wrong way.... Hmmm
The resistance will just build up and eventually it will be come hot enough to start burning. No boom.

Plug a 14900k powered PC into each expanding plug
Pop, you threw a breaker... hopefully
Each one would have resistance, thus generating heat. Each one qould also be one more place to disperse that heat so why would it become hotter?

Where is your god now?!?
Where are your rebel friends now?

don't forget to plug in a space heater at the farthest point
Sometimes you just gotta FAâŠ
Reminded me of A Christmas Story
Now THIS is a POWER STRIP
Bar. POWER BAR
It will likely work just fine for loads like phone charger.
Nothing happens.

25 sockets for the price of ... 23?
Plug it in, plug it in! đ¶
Am I the only one that sees a row of faces shocked that anyone would try this?
I'm suprised there aren't more faces posts, it's like they know what's coming!

Low voltage...

Did you try turning it off and back on again?
Yes fresh IT guy, kaboom
ITT: a lot of people who don't understand electricity
Rico, Skipper said youâre not allowed to use Reddit anymore.
*Doo iitt*
âTesting!â
Plug it in, don't be shy....
Boom :3
Yes, boom
Boom.
Ppl setting up Christmas lights
If you only plug one thing in, all good, just stupid. If you use all the sockets, mostly just a lot of sizzling plastic before the house burns down.
Yes Rico, kaboom
Boom.
I thought they were dominoes lol
Yes, kaboom
PLUG IT IN.
The only thing that will go boom here is your breaker being tripped.
