Meysam Movahedi’s latest concept certainly isn’t the first revolutionary tweak to the tried-and-true power outlet, but it’s easily one of our favorites. Put simply, the Rambler Socket is an in-wall box that contains 1.5 meters of additional cabling along with a traditional AC outlet. Granted, you’ll need a pretty deep wall to prepare something like that work (in theory, of course), but the aftermath is nothing short of brilliant. whether your AC cord is lengthy adequate, you simply plug it into the socket per usual; whether you need a little additional length, the built-in extension cord pulls out with a gentle tug. Once

you’re done, you simply tug on it the cable once more and watch as it recoils back within the wall. GE, or someone — can we get a contract to that guy, pronto?
