The things you listed up to the etc. would be okay in most cases. But be very careful not to overload the circuit, as this can cause a fire! Most regular outlets would be a 15 amp circuit. But sometimes can be as high as 20 amps.

that's appropriate to the comparable wattage as a competent hair dryer. you purely would desire to understand that your wall plug is a factor of a circuit of plugs and/or lighting fixtures, so which you will desire to be careful of what else is powered on that circuit so as to not overload it. each and each one hundred watts is approximately 3/4 amp. 1200 watts =approximately 8 amps.Be secure.

it depends on the wiring in your house.. I wouldn't do more than one full power strip from the same outlet though..
