AC/DC adapter or AC/AC adapter, that blob of plastic with the wall
outlet plugs sticking out of it, so it sticks out on the wall or takes
up more that it's share of space on a surge-strip, instead of the plug
being on a cord, which would be a brick.

When all else fails,

Thanks for the answer. The poster I was reading suggested marking them in
gold ink on the back side. Now that I can visualize what they are, it makes
sense. I am well aware of Google and one of its biggest users. I never
thought about looking under images. I did try the new define command but
only ended up with articles that contained the words, not the def.
