Night Light Display Help
Hi guys, I'm a vendor at some local conventions and sell night lights but need a better way to display them.
My idea was to make a few standing poles with outlets on each side so people could view the night lights on all sides. Is it possible to perhaps daisy chain multiple outlets to one power chord, that could than be plugged into a outlet, to power all the displays outlets?

How about a plywood box, a nice hardwood-veneer plywood (or with a white melamine surface) with an arrray of standard outlets installed? They could be spaced 6 inches apart horizontally and 8-10 inches vertically for as many as you needed to plug your nightlights into. Connected inside the box with NM-B ("Romex"), the last junction box could then go to an SJ cord to plug into your power source.
You could do the same thing in a pole, but the standard outlets used in home construction are pretty big so the column would be somewhat wide . There are multi-outlet metal columns a few inches x a few inches, but they run $300-ish.
Awesome, thanks, that sounds great. Wasn't even sure if it was a practical idea.
