NEED HELP: Mission Get Boards!

[kyzen]

Hi Guys,

You know the sexy powerboards we use for LANX... well, we needs some more cause LANX and ML clash a couple of times this year... but... the bad thing is Bunnings don't have any, and apparently aren't bringing them into Australia anymore!!! I haven't found a good replacement yet, the only thing I've found that comes close is a CABAC product... but still isn't as sexy :(

So this is what we need:

An 8 port surge protector with a main power switch, with as long a cord as possible.
Prefer 2 rows of 4 plugs if possible! Cheers guys, please post ya suggestions if you find
anything suitable.

We paid $30 each for the current ones, and we're not looking to pay too much more than than,
cause we need another 40, that's another $1200 which VicLAN has just managed to save!

Cheers Dudes!

I hear donations ringing in the wind :P
I don't mind chucking in 30$ for a power board...
I'm sorry i can't help, in finding one :( But never the less, i shall search!!

[kyzen]

Nah Bro! VicLAN has raised the money, I just need as many eye's out there finding a replacement for the belkins! :( They dissapeared April 1st due to some new regulations, so if we had the money 2 months ago, all would have been good! But shit happenes, we just need another product to replace the belkins!

[zyaN]

Ah, yeah fo sure...
I'll go on a search, and even ask my dad.
He can get alot of that stuff real cheap <3

Yeah, he suggested the cabac's I was looking at, seem like the only option, but they're just so gay in the bum!

[dominatrix]

Yeah, was up at Middys the other day getting some network points and asked the dude if they had anything or he's seen anything, but nothing :( I might do the rounds tomorrow and go visit the other guys! But I've had a pretty extensive look through catalogues and belkin had the best by far...

"The fact that you think your dad is 6", worries me some what...

[kyzen]

One word, no... ebay is shit ;) I need 30, not one with a faulty plug that someones trying to get rid of hoping some idiot will buy it for more than it's worth ;) ebay is for suckers!

I've pretty much found the ones we're getting, just waiting on an email to confirm price :)

I had a look through some catalogues at skool and every1 seems to make power boards in either 2, 4 or 6 outlets. There wasnt a single 8 socket one not even without surge protection

ide be inclined to go back to the manufactures cos they will give ya a yes or no on the spot....
and or if you can source the equipment through them or through a close reseller....
