how do you deal with heavy power cords?


I have some very heavy power cords that won't stay in a wall socket correctly, the weight pulls them down too much. It's even a problem in the IEC receptacle on the back of seveal components (I have used a foam support underneath, but that is suboptimal for obvious reasons). Has anyone developed a clamp or other kluge to hold these things in a socket? Is the only real solution to find lighter cords (and reasonable flexibility would be nice too!).

I second Oyaide R-1 receptacles. I have three of them for my audio gears. They provide amazing amount of grip. I now need to use both hands and shift my weight in order to pull the power cables from Oyaide.
