Does such a product exist?

I've just had a thought, so decided to post the question.

As you will all know, when setting up your booth (or whatever you use), there are numerous low voltage devices, each requiring their own PSU, own 240v plug etc.

When you think you have a mixer, laptop, wireless mic, dmx controller etc etc, this soon adds up to a lot of 240v plugs, psus and wires.

I would love a universal PSU, with a single 240V input, with multiple outputs at selectable voltages, 5V 12V etc.

Would be great for freeing up 240V cabling.

Does such a device exist? If not, fancy making one

There’s a few guitar effect pedal power supplies that have multiple voltage outputs (usually 9v and 18v) so it’s certainly possible.

There's probably a good reason nobody's produced such a thing for the masses yet. Such as accidentally plugging 12V into something designed for 5V.. which has a tendency to let all the magic blue smoke out of electronic devices.

We managed that yesterday when something was plugged in to the right voltage.

If you just want to make setting up quicker and less plugs to plug in and unplug...

Plastic microphone case / drill case.
Extension lead with enough plugs.

Strip extension 3 pin plug and solder to a case IEC which would allow the case to be powered by an IEC lead.
Drill holes in join of case for cables.
Put all your adaptors for laptop etc inside case.

Setup = Open case, take all leads and pull out of case leaving adapters inside, close case, plug into IEC.

Not something I would bother doing myself though!
