Power2U FAQs:

Q: How do I determine if I can safely replace my current outlet with Power2U? A: There are a couple of requirements to safely replace an outlet with the Power2U. One is that you cannot replace a Ground Fault Circuit Interruptor (GFCI) outlet with a Power2U because you would be eliminating the GFCI functionality from that electrical circuit.

You can, however, replace the electrical circuit breaker that controls the circuit you wish to install Power2U on with a GFCI enabled breaker.

To determine if your outlet box is large enough to accommodate the Power2U, follow these steps:

1. Turn off the power to the outlet that you wish to replace.
2. Remove the wall plate and outlet you wish to replace.
3. Insert a tape measure or ruler into the outlet box and measure the depth, width, and height.
4. Multiply the three measurements. For example, a standard deep outlet box is 3" deep x 3" tall x 2-1/8" wide. Multiply all of those together and you come up with 19.125 cubic inches. This box would qualify to fit the Power2U outlet, however that does not complete your calculations; the amount of wires, and fastening devices that are inside of the box also must be factored in. A very thorough explanation of these calculations are available at http://ecmweb.com/nec/code-basics/electric_box_fill_calculations/. Each situation in residential wiring can be unique, so it is up to the installer to determine if they are in compliance with the NEC regulations. Q: Which GFCI can I replace? A: If you are installing the Power2U into a circuit that is protected by a GFCI, you can replace any standard outlet that is already protected by that GFCI circuit with the Power2U. You cannot replace the GFCI outlet that protects the circuit with the Power2U. If you wish to replace a GFCI outlet with the Power2U, you would need to change the circuit breaker powering the circuit with a GFCI circuit breaker.

Power2U Simple Compatibility Visual Reference Guide:
(Your GFCI buttons may vary from the outlet depicted below)

DO NOT replace GFCI outlets that contain reset/breaker buttons Wired in series outlets protected "downstream" from a GFCI outlet can be replaced with a Power2U

Q: Will my Power2U be GFCI protected when I replace a GFCI downstream outlet? A: Yes.

Q. Can any other type of outlet be replaced? A: Yes, any standard dual socket outlet can be replaced with a Power2U*

Q: What's the difference between the main GFCI and others in a series? A: A GFCI outlet (the kind that has a TEST and a RESET button on it) is the device that protects the entire electrical circuit from severe or fatal electrical shocks. There is no difference between the main GFCI outlet and an outlet wired in series after the GFCI outlet, both are equally protected. However, you cannot replace the main GFCI outlet with a Power2U outlet and still have the same shock protection, the Power2U is not a GFCI outlet. Q: What if my GFCI is located in a circuit breaker panel? A: No problem! You can replace any outlet protected by a GFCI circuit breaker with a Power2U as long as the outlet box is large enough per NEC regulations (www.necplus.org) to accommodate the Power2U. Q: What if my installation location doesn't have a 14 cubic inch outlet box? A: You will need to replace the existing outlet box with a larger box that meets NEC regulations to accommodate the Power2U. Your local home center will have replacement outlet boxes (called "boxes with ears" or "old work" boxes), and a set of hold-it straps (commercially available as "Madison Straps") to accomplish this task. If you are not familiar with this process, a licensed and bonded electrician can do it for you. This process can get quite involved and may require minor drywall patching when complete, depending on your existing outlet box installation. Q: My house uses AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interruptor) protected outlets.
Can I replace one of them with a Power2U? A: Yes, just like GFCI outlets that are protected by a GFCI circuit breaker, AFCI outlets are protected by a circuit breaker. If you are installing the Power2U into a circuit that is protected by a AFCI, you can replace any standard outlet that is already protected by that AFCI circuit with the Power2U. Q: Is there a fuse inside of the Power2U? A: Yes, there is an internal fuse to protect the system in case of overload or short in the USB charging system. The fuse is not user-replaceable-if activated, it is recommended to replace the entire Power2U unit.

Note: The internal fuse will burn out to protect the system (wall socket and device) if the end user makes the mistake of connecting to a power source requiring more than 125V. Q: What USB cables work with Power2U? A: The Power2U has been tested, and is compatible, with cables conforming to USB standards. This includes cables that come with USB powered/charged devices, including those from Apple, Kindle (Amazon), Nokia, Motorola, Samsung and other major brand device providers, as well as aftermarket cable brands including NewerTech (purchase here), Belkin, and Griffin. Not all aftermarket cables meet USB design standards and such may not be ideal for use with this product. Q: What happens if I plug a damaged USB cable into the Power2U? A: The USB wall socket will terminate charging if the USB cable is shorted. In this case, the internal fuse will not burn out. Then, when the short is cleared and power reset, the charging system will return back to normal. Q: A light switch controls my outlets. Can I use the NewerTech Power2U receptacle still? A: The NewerTech Power2U can be used with a switch. Bear in mind that the entire Power2U unit will turn on or off with the switch. If the switch is in the off position, no power will be available from the three-prong outlets or the USB ports.

Some residences have "half-switched" receptacles, where the top or bottom outlet is always ON and the opposite outlet turns on and off with a switch. The Power2U is NOT compatible with these types of installation-it cannot be "half-switched." Q: Which electrical boxes can adequately house a Power2U? A: The Power2U is compatible with standard 14 cubic inch and larger electrical boxes. Because the Power2U is a wide device, it will fit better into nail-on and screw-on boxes than it will in cut-in boxes. Be sure that the box you are installing into is large enough to accommodate the Power2U and the existing wires safely before installing.

If you are unsure or in doubt about installation, please call a licensed electrician!

Rating: 5/5 Great outlet (be aware of size) May 1, 2016 I really like this item. It works flawlessly and looks good above our kitchen counter where we often plug in our devices. The only caution I would have is that you need to have quite a large utility box to fit the unit. It is surprisingly large and requires a big wall box. Make sure the location is either a double utility box or an extra large single in order to be sure it will fit.

Rating: 3/5 Just OK, nothing more February 5, 2016 These were just ok, nothing special. A bit overpriced.

Response from OWC, Technical Support March 2, 2016 In terms of UL Certified, in Wall fixtures - there is nothing nearly in this price range with the AC x 2 and USB x 2 + the high-power USB Charging output. The only less expensive items we’ve every seen in this class are either non-UL certified knockoffs that are no where near truly comparable and some other branded products that have a single port and about 1/4th the USB Charging (4x longer to charge the same device). We believe this to be a exceptionally high quality solution at a really exceptional cost comparable to others in the class. Power2U was the very first outlet of it’s kind with UL approval when first introduced.

Rating: 4/5 An advice for Canadian buyers January 15, 2016 Ad I didn't install the product yet, I cannot recommend it for now. But I would like to make a comment. This electrical apparatus requires a larger electrical boxes to put in that the boxes Canadians are accustomed with. I suggest that in your offer about this product, you warn Canadian buyers they would have to find a larger than usual box to install it. Personally, I will install it within a plastic external box.

Rating: 4/5 Convenient USB charging January 9, 2016 This integrated USB charging solution works well and is very convenient. Power bricks are relegated to storage. We can and do charge two devices at once.

The only negative for me is the easy of installation. It is to easy. Electrical connections are made with wire nuts. I would have preferred integrated screw terminals as found on traditional power outlet plug assemblies.

I like the fact that the unit does not power up for charging unless a type A USB plug it inserted.

I have not opinion on USB charge for type C. I have not tested it.

Rating: 4/5 Very useful product November 27, 2013 I purchased 8 of these last Christmas. Gave 4 as presents and kept 4 for my own home. I installed one myself in an existing outlet in our bathroom. As other commenters have said, the unit is large, snug, but it did fit into my existing junction box which had been installed in 1999. I had an electrician install two others as new outlets and he used cut-in remodel boxes without any issues. The outlets work great and are easy to use. Depending on location, we leave some cords plugged in all the time, other locations we only plug into USB when needed. Have not experienced any difficulty sliding the USB port doors open, even one- handed. The layout permits most standard blade plugs to fit when USB ports are in use. My only negative is the cover plate cut-out and doors for the USB ports is custom. This means can only be used in single box and will not work at multiple gang locations, such as outlets that are ganged with data ports, as you cannot get a double gang cover plate with the doors.

Rating: 5/5 Does what it should as it should, with a small caveat... June 26, 2013 This works great. I installed two in my bedroom... one on each side of the bed for my wife and me. I've got my lamp and laptop charger plugged in normally and my iPad and Android phone plugged into the USB ports for charging. My wife charges her iPhone 4 and Kindle Paperwhite via her USB ports and also has a lamp and laptop charger plugged in. It's so nice not to have any wall warts, power strips, etc. anymore. We each keep our phone chargers in our suitcases for travel now (my wife, especially, regularly forgot her charger).

Here's the catch: these things are big on the inside. Other posters have mentioned it and I'm just amplifying that point. Make sure you have clearance in the box. My house was constructed in 2009, so the boxes are the modern larger boxes, but even still, my wife's outlet does protrude off the wall ever-so-slightly, as there are several groups of wires that junction at her location (and, yes, this involved a good bit of figuring out on my end to get it wired). This isn't a design flaw or an indicator of anything wrong with the product; it's just the reality of the technology and how it has to be physically configured. That being said, it looks fine and is functional in both locations. Just be aware of it.

Another poster mentioned that the spring-loaded doors on the USB outlets were difficult to open. I have not experienced that at all. All four outlets opened easily and I was able to place the plug into the outlets with no problem. It may be possible that they over-tightened the face plate. I can see how that might cause such an issue. Does it require two hands to plug something in? Yes. But this is not some massive inconvenience. It simply allows the outlet to shut off the USB ports when not in use (I just leave them plugged in 24/7... it's USB... it doesn't draw *that* much power--I mean, seriously, most USB devices have power draw measured in milliwatts).

Bottom line, if, like I had been, you've been eyeballing this for a little while, pull the trigger. It's worth it.

Rating: 5/5 Great product. June 20, 2013 Eight months ago, I installed two USB & power outlets in October 2012 ( I have the first generation) in the over the counter outlet boxes in the kitchen where I keep my phone (yes, I still use a landline for some reason), mail and other items. (I guess it is a mini home collection station) Having the USB & power outlet there is very convent. I no longer need the power strip there to handle all of the USB adapters. The only thing I checked on before I bought them was the size of the outlet box. It is a very tight fit in a standard home 15A outlet box. I was able to replace one of the outlet boxes with a remodel deep box to handle the wires that needed to be pushed to the rear of the box. I added a "pigtail' to connect the USB & power outlet to the feed. The other box only had one set of wires in it. So that install was easy. It might have turned into a Saturday project but I could not be happier with the results. The newer USB & Power outlets are designed smaller so I am assuming that the new USB & power outlets will not be as difficult to fit into the 15A household outlet box.
