Great charge station
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We installed 2 of these where we normally charge our phones, watches, etc. It is so much easier to use this than to have to have all the USB adapters plugged in. Great buy!

Works exactly as expected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace an outlet that was used in the past to power an old wall mounted telephone. Easy/simple installation and all 4 USB outlets working fine. I bought it on sale .... would say wait till it goes on sale as it is otherwise a little expensive at list price. Definitely worth the money when on sale!

Permanent Charging Station
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is been so helpful for our home. I was able to convert one outlet into a charging station for four devices. No longer do we need to search for a charger and fight for the outlet. We have a permanent charging station in our kitchen. Fairly easy to install too.

DOES NOT FIT IN STANDARD WALL BOXES!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this because of the high rating, but now I wish I'd paid attention to the reviewers who noted a problem with where the grounding screw is positioned. This device does not fit into the opening of a standard 4" square metal electrical box (see picture). You could take the grounding screw out and attempt to screw it in underneath the plaster ring, which is very difficult and not the intended installation method. But that's only possible if, like me, you haven't finished installing the electrical box when you install this device. And even if you succeeded at that, you wouldn't be able to remove the device in the future without tearing up your wall to get the plaster ring out of the way again. It's amazing that they allowed such a glaring design flaw to get through. Very disappointing. Best Buy shouldn't be selling this product without warning people and clearly explaining that it might not fit a large number of already-installed wall boxes.

Q: QuestionWhat is the maximum output for one port? I have heard that it is not safe to charge some devices with more than 2 Amps.
Asked by Nero.
- A:Answer Max output from one plug is 2.4 Amps, if 1 or 2 devices are plugged in you should see 2.4 Amps or 10 Watts. If you plug in 3 or 4 devices, the 4.8 Amps gets averaged out across all plugs (1.6 or 1.2 Amps respectively). Most, NOT ALL devices will handle 10 Watts without any issue, and most phones will charge faster, but the battery gets a little warmer. Also, just as a note, high apmperage devices may not charge. An iPad needs a minimum of 10 Watts to charge for example, so if you have a phone, external battery, iPod, and iPad all plugged in, the iPad will not show it is changing.

Q: QuestionWould it be okay to have this as part of a double-gang outlet? Other side would be a standard 3-prong.
Asked by SlimDoug.
- A:Answer YES, The only problem you might encounter is the Ground connection on this unit is in the way. it is in a bad location. I wished they just had a green wire sticking out of the box. or all three wires sticking out of the box would be better. Mine is ganged with a GFI outlet. I am happy i bought it as it is on the kitchen counter bar section very convenient and happy i bought it.
