Photo of a hotel room mains socket in the UK. Plugged into it is a 3-way UK mains adapter. In the right socket, is a 2-way UK mains adapter holding an Apple laptop power supply. The socket in front of the 3-way holds another Apple laptop power supply, while the left holds an iPad power supply, feeding power to a 3G MiFi (propped on top of the adapters). The socket on top is feeding an iPad, and the 3-way mains brick has a pair of USB-A sockets to charge smaller devices. The whole assemblage looks like a model of the 1990s Mir space station rendered in mains adapters and chargers.

@paupowpow @Illuminatus Here, from a couple of years later, is what I had to plug into a hotel room mains socket when traveling in order to keep everything charge.
