@Windows7ge Power strip is rated for 1800w, so it should be fine.

This station is just designed to clone HDDs to SSDs at work

We get a high enough volume to warrant building this from some old servers we were given for recycling. They're single socket xeon X3430 machines.

Yeah the important thing is that it uses a low gauge wire and has a thick enough bus bar. Just don't go to Walmart, buy a 3 dollar power strip and push 1600W though it.

In fact thanks for that link. I have projects that could use something capable of carrying well over 1000W.

After seeing the power strips my work uses for our work benches, I became aware of "industrial" level power strips. Although the ones they use are surely cheaper and of less quality.

I mainly loved how there are INCHES of room between each plug. No device could EVER have a plug big enough to cause issues.

It is only now that I am learning that this power strip is actually capable of handling of more power than I am drawing. I know my window unit maybe draws 400 watts, and I know my PC isn't drawing a full 1000w that the PSU is capable of.

Still, great to know it can handle that kind of power.
