English term or phrase: 9 Prong CTU
Hi all,

I am translating a brochure for Energizer (torches, batteries...)

And came across this term

9 Prong CTU

I asked the client and he said that this refers to - 6 Prong Counter Top Unit

Even with this clarification, I am still not able to translate this...

Thanks for your help

présentoir à 9 broches (à poser sur comptoir)
Explanation:
You ought to be able to verify it from there.

prong = the sticking-out thing you hang products from = broche (see previous KudoZ)

'unit' = '(display) unit' = présentoir

'counter-top' = designed to stand on a counter, i.e. not floor-standing or wall-mounting.

Here is the sort of idea, albeit this one has 12 'prongs'
