SuperSquid - camera battery charger splitter

On location photography shoots I usually run into the need for several chargers and very few power outlets. Other times I've packed the camera bags and forgotten the second, identical charger cable thinking it was already in the bag. Often times I am photographing a late wedding reception and running low on juice or will need to recharge gear for the next day's shoot while at still at a late shoot. More frequently I find only one outlet available near our table and need to charge several items at once. This is the easiest solution I have found using the cables included without buying special chargers that handle multiple batteries at once. PARTS + 2 or more Camera Battery chargers (1 usually comes with the camera) + 2 AC leads for the chargers + 1 Inline AC ungrounded plug - hardware store + Heat shrink tubing - 1/4" for AC leads, 3/4" to cover split connection (black electrical tape works as well but a nice piece of heat shrink won't unravel or leave goo while keeping the look of well built, professional gear.) + Epoxy / Epoxy Putty / Hot glue - encase split junction (come on, doesn't every project on here use one of these 3 adhesives?) TOOLS Wire cutters, strippers Soldering iron, solder TIME 30 minutes or so? Not too tricky or difficult once you have the parts together. ** All the external hard drives I use have the same kind of figure-8 AC leads to the power bricks, and this Instructable can be applied to powering multiple drives or any other peripherals using same ends. **
