Looking for an extension with a specific socket layout

This is a bit of an odd one. I currently have a Micromark anti surge extension which I am looking to replace. The problem is the layout of the sockets seems to not exist on extensions these days.

This is a picture of the extension that I found on Google:
86-1.jpg

The sockets all face the same direction and are staggered so the wires from the top row go between the bottom row.

I'm trying hard to find a layout like in the image, as the space is confined.
 
I used to have one of those in the OP (probably 15+ years ago now), I never could get more than the first two or three power usage LEDs to light up!

That has the sockets mirrored.

I can't say I've ever seen an extension lead that way. Does it have to be 1 block? You might be best getting 2x 4/5 way, and mounting them on top of each other, offset by the required amount.

I'd rather it was one block just for simplicity really. I had considered getting two 4-way extensions and I still might - but really I'd prefer one whole unit.

That's pretty close, something to consider - added to my wish list so I don't forget about it, thank you!

I don't think the lights work at all now on mine. To be honest I bought it just for the power usage monitor, but got bored after 30 minutes. :D
