I STILL WATT FOR IT. SO WENT YOU FIND IT HOW ABOUT NSEND IT TO ME.

Opened the Rocketfish 2-outlet in-wall surge protector and looked it over. It’s got its good points, but also a few flaws. I like the ability to replace an ordinary outlet with this in-wall surge protector. I’m able to not need a surge power strip that must be placed on the floor. In my case, it works even better. I used it on the ceiling for my overhead projector. I had a regular outlet there with no surge protection and now it has the Rocketfish. I chose that outlet because most of my house is wired in series. The outlets are daisy chained from one outlet to the next, up to code. With that, many of the outlets are 14- or 12-gauge wire and take more than the two ports available on the back of the surge outlet. I didn’t want to turn off the power and remove several outlets to find one that would work. Since I ran the overhead projector outlet, I knew it was a single run and terminated at that jbox. I will say that the outlet is a bit chunky. It’s a bit wider than the standard outlet as you can clearly see when it’s against the included plate. It’s also a bit deep, with the average jbox around 2 ¾” and this outlet at 1 5/8”, one must fold the wires in tightly and get it to clear the angled wire slots in the back of the jbox. So, does it work? I have no idea, but it seems to. Then again, how do I know a power strip is working? The Rocketfish surge protector lights up and hopefully if I ever need it to save the projector, it will. As for installation, it was straightforward. Anyone with knowledge of how to install an outlet should be able to install this. The ports in the back are locked down by tightening a plate against the wire, which I prefer over spring loaded ports. It’s also nice that Rocketfish made the ports for 12- and 14-gauge wire. If you install it in an existing outlet that has 12-gauge wire, be sure the breaker on that run is 15amp. Most 12 gauge runs in my area are 20-amp circuits. This outlet states it’s for 2-15amp outlets. Overall, it's a handy surge protector and looks great in my configuration, right next to the HDMI plate. I’d recommend this to anyone who wants a cleaner installation for say a flat screen tv, a projector like me or electronics that aren’t hidden behind a piece of furniture.

I picked up the Rocketfish 2 Outlet In Wall Surge Protector to compliment my surge protector power strip that I have been using for quite some time now. I really love the idea of having the outlet and surge protector as one device, it really makes me feel safer knowing that anything I might choose to plug in here will be protected from power surges, which seem to happen every so often here. Install of this was identical to other outlets I have installed in the past. If you are unsure about doing this yourself I highly recommend calling up a local electrician and having them install it! Be absolutely sure to kill the power to the house before putting this in to avoid electrocution! After the install I have used this on my laptop charger, several cell phone chargers, and my office desktop fan. All of these devices have worked perfectly and they get a nice tight connection into the outlet. Overall I would definitely recommend getting a few of these installed all around your house, the peace of mind alone is worth the investment!

The Rocketfish -2 OUtlet In-Wall Surge protector is great to replace your old faulty outlets. I reside in a 1968 home and recently have been making quite a bit of repairs to bring the home into the millenia. The surge protector comes with a quick set up guide for installation. When referencing the guide, you are provided with 9 steps to make sure the installation of the outlet is done carefully and properly. Once done you are then able to use your devices without the worry of them malfunctioning due to a power outage. The outlet provides an led incidcator which lets you know wherther or not the surge protector is operating properly. I like this feature of being able to install these type of outlets into the walls. It makes it convient when you don't have a lot of devices to plug in a certain area of your home. I think having these type of outlets is nice and would be nice to see additional outlets like this one with four slots. Yes, I would recommend this product to others that are doing upgrades to their homes.

Fits in standard outlet, has a blue light showing when its powered up. Hardest thing about the install was to get the grounding wires around the grounding screw on the outlet. could have been positioned a little better. Was on sale so I pulled the trigger on it.

I was looking for something like this for awhile. We live in Florida and the power can flicker often during the summer months and Hurricane season. My garage door outlet is in the ceiling above the motor so protecting it was not an option the traditional surge protector option. This was my answer. I cut the power to the breaker. Removed the old outlet and plate. Installed the new outlet with the new plate. Then I turned on the breaker and all was working. Of course I have no way to test it but it is comforting that I am protecting some of my valuable electronics in the home. I plan on getting more for other items like our spectrum modem outlet. These really are a must have here. The only thing they could improve on is to make a few different colors and a way to connect them to an app so I can see if they have protected the devices from a surge to proactively replace them in the future. There really is not much else to say other then there is a reset button on the outlet like the gfci ones that normally come in the kitchen but that helps reset them. Does not show the level of surge it protected.

I was adding an electrical receptacle to my home office and came across the Rocketfish 2-outlet receptacle with built-in surge protector. This was my first time seeing, or even hearing, of a receptacle that had a built-in surge protector. So, I was a bit skeptical about its performance and safety. It has a $150,000 limited warranty, so long as you follow their guidelines. It is best to have an electrical expert install it if you've never done an installation like this. With that being said, I decided to give it a try. My existing home office only had two receptacles in the room, so I needed one to connect my printer and for charging some equipment. The installation was simple, as I have installed new electrical receptacles in my home previously. I ran the necessary wires through my home, added a receptacle box, and was good to go in a relatively short amount of time. Another really cool feature is that it comes with the wall plate, so no need to spend extra money on that. So far, the Rocketfish surge protector outlet is working great. The led light on the receptacle lets me know that it's protected. No more having to spend extra money on a surge protector. I would highly recommend the Rocketfish 2-outlet surge protector receptacle to anyone.

I returned this surge protector because it required in-wall installation vs a plug in.

It's an outlet. It works. That's exactly what i expected.... how can you be impressed with an outlet? Other then it does It's job.
