Need advice on power cables

I have limited space as I drive a semi truck and I’m having issues with excess wires from all my electronics. I would like to put my Xbox and my Apple TV on the same power cord. Do they make a power splitter that would fit those devices? (After all they both use the same cord) Or can I just take 2 power cords and splice them together? Could doing this damage them?

dont splice power cables, thats how you start fires.

just use a power strip.

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS. Don't splice. Risk of burning down your truck.

 

Edit: i realize you're trying to compact the cables and that's why you don't want to use a strip. Just take some time organizing. You would be surprised how neat cables can be with some zip-ties or velcro.
