Where Can I Find AC Plug Covers?

Not things to cover AC outlets. I'm looking for those things that usually come with a lot of electronic devices, the covers on the metal plugs that go into AC outlets.

Like this one for the Belkin Mini Surge Protector:

Why the heck can I find these online? Surely there are people out there who want to cover up these metal, abrasive things when they're not plugged in? :Grimmace:

Those involve locks...and one of those are for a USB.

I'm looking for simple, slide-on plastic covers but I guess indeed they are pretty much nowhere to be bought.

Funny they'd made them for outlets but not for the freaking plugs that go inside them.

They are both for electrical outlets as stated in the description. Besides, I thought you liked having things locked up.

Yeah that was a good one lol.

And yeah I see it's for that. It definitely looks like for USB at first.

But yeah. I would not want to be locking things each time I unplug my cables, and definitely not willing to pay over 10 bucks for each of these things. I should be able to get 20 for that amount.
