Power Cable Audioquest Dragon vs Isotek EVO3 Ascension
You need to do some research on circuit breakers, what you said is incorrect. A 15 amp breaker will trip at 80% of it’s 15 amp rating which is 12 amps, but that’s continuous, breakers are time sensitive. A lot more than 15 amps for short duration...

@rfprice My Daughter is come over tonight. I will have her, hopefully, post a couple of photos on the thread. FWIW, I like @whart idea of the Hockey Pucks. You could get creative and start with a puck laying flat for a base. Then two standing ...

@whart You got me thinking... The possibilities of supporting from the floor are endless... Here’s just one example: LEGO Parts and Pieces: Black 2x4 Brick x50 Design and build your own.  
2 conductors vs 3
@miklet1 I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to replace that cheapo 2 conductor 16ga cable with a good, doesn’t have to be expensive, 3 wire after market power cord. I would probably look at, minimum, a 12ga conductor power cord. Try before you buy...
