Power supplies in parallel for more current/same voltage?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi everyone! I am trying to find a cheap way I can increase the
current capacity of a power supply by installing fuses to each output
of multiple universal power supplies, setting each polarity
correctly, setting each voltage correctly, but in other words combine
power supplies to get up to 3 amps or more available from the
parallel power supplies, to drive digital cameras. I have researched
power supply providers and have found no usable/cheap enough power
supplies (those dedicated power supplies are very expensive -
especially if you have to buy one for every single digital camera)
and found no suitable devices, and I don't want to convert a pc power
supply because there appears to be no way to avoid the intense heat
from seemingly any appropriate load. Also - I have never found a
universal wall mount power supply that would deliver enough current
for a digital camera. So, can I successfully do what I proposed
(parallel connected power supplies)? Any dangers? Plus - I would have
every individual power supply connected to a power strip with switch
as a group. Your comments are welcome. Good luck and later!
