The title says it all, yesterday I spent another 1 1/2 hour searching for a specific adapter to my old video-camera before I found it. I have made a calculation on this issue and I spend bout 4-5 hours a week in searching of those damned things. So therefore I curse the whole electronics industry, and from now on I'm only gonna use devices with real power-units!

I have a box in my basement that consists of 60-70 adapters, and by looking at them no one can tell what they are good for. The manufactorers doesn't even bother to put their own name on them anymore, they rather buy some cheap garbage and send it along with their device. Even on expensive products, You can't have one without an adaptor, and its most annoying. Neither is there any standard, when I lost my adaptor to my Nikon camera, I had to order one from Nikon that costed me some 50 Euro's - if I still had been an electronic hobbyist, I could have built this one for 3 Euro's........

So therefore I now declare War against the manufactorers - I want real power units in the devices, otherwise I'm gonna take all the cables on my adapters and make some ropes out of them in order to hang the responsible persons for this madness.
