: OK, in work I've got a cabinet of 30 laptops that go out to classrooms for kids to use. The machines have batteries that last for about an hour and a half, and take an hour to charge, so there are obviously power issues with back to back lessons.

: I could potentially issue each machine with its power supply, but mosts of the classrooms aren't equipped with 20-30 sockets. What I'm looking for is a sort of 'one box' solution that can be used to power, say, 10 machines.

: Short of finding a bloody big bench power supply and wiring ten sockets to it, have you guys seen anything that might solve this problem?

: Cheers chaps :-)
