[Year 12 IPM] trolley for laptops query

[Dunlop, Susan M]

Janet

We have recently set up 3 trolleys with 10 laptops on each (not as heavy
to move (OHS) and more flexible) from Optima.

 

To charge the laptops we use the power supplies supplied with the
laptops and they are all neatly tied on to the trolley and are easy to
access to reconnect.  You can also easily see that they are connected
for charging.  One lead is then plugged in for the whole trolley.

 

The main problem that we can see is that the power supplies are neatly
attached to the trolleys.  What do you do if you need to recharge the
laptop while in use?

 

I looked at several different types of trolleys recently at VITTA and
they all seem to have a similar arrangement. The suggest solution from
the trolley providers was to purchase extra power supplies.

 

Has anyone got another solution?

Hi guys

 

We are getting some laptops for our new Year 9 program next year.  Has
anyone got any bright ideas about trolleys and storage options (some of
the trolleys are around the $4000- $5000 mark to store 20 laptops) that
aren't too exhorbitant? It would also be good if the supplier was
Melbourne metro area.

 

thanks for your help
