So...
What I am pondering is....
The clock is working well.
So does the radio.
I am not in the habit of keeping my radios plugged in, as I do not want to drill holes and install fuses, and the radio without a fuse is a fire hazard.
So, I resort to plugging them into power strip that are off. If I want to listen to a radio, I turn the respective strip on.
However this done to a clock means the clock being, well.....useless.
This is why I thought plugging the radio and the clock to a fused strip. Like 1.5A - 2A, fast action, should be adequate.
I cannot seem to find anything like it.
I can make one myself, taking a 2-outlet metal box, placing two outlets in it, putting a fuseholder...well, 2 fuseholders, to protect the radio and the clock separately.
I have to exclude the original tripler mount on the wall from the picture. It does not accept modern polarized plugs.
But before I make a project out of it, I would like to make sure there is no off-the-shelf solution.
The fact that I haven't found one does not mean it does not exist.
Anyone knows of something of that sort?
Like a fused tripple plug adapter? Or anything suitable?
