Are you saying that exhibitors are having to pay their own power Cost?
Or maybe they are just busy doing other things??
Exhibitors have to pay for their own power.
While sort of true, I've never seen any sort of tradeshow where the power is metered. Typically you just pay a flat rate for the number/size of hookups you need.
Right, but show organizers are not running a sinking ship. It's like health insurance, most will not use enough power to equal the amount they paid per hookup, and are subsidizing those that underpaid.
