Cool Pop-Up Power Strip

Hello all,

This will be my first blog…We just came back from our bi-annual Lake Powell family vacation. I noticed that two wall receptacles in the galley were close to a window. I figured since they were on a GFI circuit and there was only a small chance of water entry they opted for the economic standard solution. If it were my houseboat I would have opted for the Power Grommet shown below.

So since I’m a guy and we generally love gadget-e things I wanted to share this with you.


DESCRIPTION

· Power Grommet specifically designed for kitchens.

· This ring forms a seal when the unit is closed.

· To use, just grab the two metal handles on the top and pull up until it "clicks" in place.

· To lower, depress the red button on bottom and push down




Electrical codes vary by location. Please check with your electrician to verify that this unit meets your local code before installing.







Thanks…see you soon

Dan
