Hi everyone!
It’s lovely to hear your thoughts on Blockhead. It’s an idea I hope will prove useful, even though a tiny thing.
Yes, it could have been done as much as 15 years ago when the square power adapter first shipped with the Titanium Powerbook G4. When the idea first arose, there was a mixture of disbelief that it hadn’t been done, and kicking myself for overlooking it for so long.
It feels terrific to finally have a chance to share this. I am really looking forward to hearing your take on it. Did we miss anything? Is it helpful? Any feedback gratefully accepted.

@psidentity this is such a great idea! Any plans for foreign (e.g., Aus/UK) plugs in the future?

@psidentity beautiful product. Haven't read through all the comments, but did you try a design where the prongs fold away for travel like the original? I'd love to see that in a future version.

@karanm Thanks! Blockhead prongs are in a fixed position for strength & safety. Allowing them fold as well would be pretty great.
