Check how attentive you are! How many devices can you charge using these sockets?
Out of 6 supply extensions, one has no wire and another one (on the right) has a torn off wire. Plus, we can't use the supply extension with one socket. There are 3 extensions with 13 sockets left. Out of these 13 sockets, one has a defect (one hole only). Another two sockets will be used to power the supply extensions. Now we only have 10 sockets left. One of the extensions has a USB. This way, we can power 11 accumulators.
