Need extra power outlets

On a recent trip with family the single power outlet was inadequate for all the electronic gizmos we needed to power=
GPS
Satellite radio
CB radio
DVD player
Laptop
Occasional charging for cameras, Ipods,video game systems and cell phones.
I bought a Dual Socket Cigarette Lighter Adapter so i now have 2 power options but i'm thinking theres gotta be a better way.
As a side note where is the fuse for that center console power socket?
Thanks

I was thinking about something like that,they do come in a 4 outlet version but i'm wondering how much power drain that single power outlet can take as replacing blown fuses every hour would get old real fast.
