I wonder how much space this takes up in the box?

Probably not much space at all . I see now that no usb cord is used.

It sure looks as if the USB port will hit the edge of a single gang box. Not sure about this animal and I see no UL listing on the site.

This item is currently waiting on final safety approval. It is scheduled to begin shipping in October.

That is what you get when you click the buy now tab. $20.00 each wouldnt be a bad upsell to customers with a lot of dodads.

They say an installation video will be available shortly. Seems they put the cart before the horse.

not really, some of us can install a receptacle without a how to video.

LOL-- but it may not be as easy as you think

Installation:
This item can be installed on any existing wall outlet.

We will have an installation video available shortly so that you can see exactly what is involved and if this is something you feel comfortable doing on your own or if you will need assistance.

Please also note that the USB ports only draw power when something is physically connected to the port. We didn't want a vampire port that continually sucks and wastes power when not in use so this was one of the features on the top of our priority list during the design phase.

Two conductor's worth.

I wonder if it comes in tamper proof?

I want one for my deck. Does it come in WR too?

Its upside down.

Just what we need. A "USB-up vs USB-down" debate.

It seems to me that a "decora" version would be more appealing. We really don't install too many standard duplex receptacles anymore.

everybody knows they have to be installed sideways with the usb port up
