Extension Reel

[Ryyy]

Can anyone find me an extension reel (one that doesn't have a fixed cable length) with atleast 5 sockets, FOR A HALF DECENT PRICE?

I can't find ANY?! Or can you plug a normal extension into a reel kind?

240v or 110v ?

I found a 6 point extension which is 10m long ... not a reel though 6 point 240v Extension £12.99 (http://www.lidl.co.uk/uk/home.nsf/pages/c.o.20090427.p.Heavy-duty_Extension_Lead.ar11)

Erm..Dont know which Voltage..Think it should be 240v
Thing is, I could use a reel with one/two socket's in it and connect a normal fixed ext.reel to that, but I would be using possibly 6 sources at the same time so would it blow the circuit/fuse or whatever you call it lol?
Or would I be better off getting a 6 socket reel
And btw jdmojojo youv'e just given my the Lidl Home page haha..

i had to put in a postcode, and dont know yours. You did say you wanted a cheap extension.


doubt you'll get a reel with 5 or 6 points in it, the reels we have in our work have 4 at the most but they cost over £50 each.

I don't think you need 50m of cable on it do you ? ... If 10m isn't enough i'd go up to you local B&Q and just buy how much metre's of cable you need and use the plug and points

But could I not plug a normal fixed extension into a reel one?
So I could have 6 sockets easily( 1 from reel, 5 from extension)?

Cheerz;)
