Kettle Leads

And there we go...

At the end of the gig on Saturday I'm left standing staring a pile of 'kettle' leads. 14 in total. All of them 0.75mm.

I know one of them is for my amp and 4 of them are for my lights. The others belong to the guitarist, PA, smoke machine and Laser.

This is why it becomes a bit of nonesense to fuse each lead depending on the device. People will just grab a lead without understanding they're different.

I'm now left searching for my 3amp/5amp leads and my 10amp/13amp leads. Otherwise I'm going to blow a 3amp lead next time we use it on an amplifier.

Time for some labelling?

Either spray the plugs different colours - easier to see on a dark stage than labels. Or just fit a 13A fuse in all of them and stop worrying.

Or just label the 3amp ones and the 10amp one so that at the end of the gig they get put away with the lights or my amp?
