PlugKing

Juniper Foo | Nov 03, 2006

Not all million-dollar ideas come to you when you're on the loo fantasizing about the next Post-It Note or Digg.com. For local boy Ng Yi Han, lying horizontal on his bed scanning his room for potential new products appeared to have provided the vital spark. The result, an idea meant for a school module project, led to PlugKing. So maybe it sounds more like an R(A) title, but it's a nifty idea borrowing from those distant childhood days of Lego set building. All this requires is to plug one desired multi-plug after another, as shown here, and voila, you get one highly versatile modular power socket. Ng sees a PlugKing that can dock your iPod, another acting as a USB charger... with the potential seemingly limitless. His brainwave is pending a patent now, but if you're quick, you can catch a demo of the modular power plug at this week's Global Entrepolis @ Singapore 2006 show. Electric.
