Installation can be difficult
|Posted .Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.Installation can be difficult especially if it's sharing an electrical box. The unit itself is a bit large (compared to a standard duplex) so if you have a small (metal) electrical box or this is going to share a box with other duplexs, installation can be a bit challenging.

Can only hold one set of wires securely.
|Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.What should be straightforward installation turned out to be hassle with multiple redo because it cannot hold the wire securely. In summary, if you are installing this in the middle of a circuit, then I highly recommend pigtail the downstream connecting wires. This product will only hold one set of wires securely. Also, note that 3.6A is the total output. So if you have two devices capable of rapid charging, one will get less current than the other. The only good thing is the decora plate is elegant design.

USB Wall outlet
|Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.Great product, but if your considering this, you might want to get the ones that have USB and USB-C (mini), because everything is heading to the mini USB. Either way, they are easy to switch out once they are installed.

Cool gadget
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Works better than a dominion vote counting machine that’s for sure. The back is large and is a son of a hor to push in the outlet box but whatever. After it’s jammed in there it looks and works nicely.

Q: QuestionCan this replace a GFCI receptical?
Asked by RIBBS.
- A:Answer This product replaces a standard duplex outlet. Premium surge protection protects your valuable devices and status LED lets you know your devices are protected.
Answered by InsigniaCustomerSupport
Q: QuestionDoes this unit use electricity when nothing is plugged into it?
Asked by Integral.
- A:Answer Like a TV, it "uses" a very small amount of electricity to power a small LED all the time, but this is actually to help it use up less energy after things are unplugged, and to indicate that the surge protector is working. I'd say the energy slip is pretty negligible though. Probably uses less energy than your lights and ceiling fans use in a few minutes.
Answered by MarkNied
Q: QuestionHow many joules is the surge protector?
Asked by BlueBoy.
- A:Answer The more important question is what is the clamping voltage and is proper surge protection wired in. Clamping voltage is 500V which is not great and it only has L-N protection, which is very limited.
