I'm not trying to beat the drum for Uncle, but keep in mind that anything milspec is super expensive. We do some milspec work where I work, and lots of things get rejected or fail to meet spec and must be retested. Having ten engineers look at something with a government rep present costs a lot of money. Some of our IT systems are very much like the ones you could buy at Best Buy, but they are so heavily tested that their cost is 5 times what you would pay as a consumer. Having said that, I bet those single outlet manifolds will last forever with that PVD coating and construction. Having said all of that...I still want one.
