POLL QUESTION: how many power outlets are you using?

i want to know how many power outlets people are using for their setups... just for one tank (cuz i know we all multiple tanks lol)... On my 90 gallon FOWLR which is attached to my 29 gal fuge has a total of 16 outlets consumed (powerstrips) (6 are on timers)...what about you???
