Electric outlet shortage was a problem

We do not have enough outlets in our garage. It is just a fact. 


We have four outlets, with the standard two plugs each, on four different/opposite walls. That is not enough. 

The worst offender is the outlet by the work bench/window. Two plugs is not enough for the pumpkins or the Christmas wreaths nor chargers/tools.

At first I thought the outlets should have been installed with four plugs each, but then I realized even with eight, spacing would have been an issue. Many things in the garage have wide plugs. 






I realized what I needed, solving the window/work bench plug, was a power strip that mounted on the wall, with well spaced plugs. 

I found a great one -
