Review on Efficient Charging Power with ELECTECK Charging Receptacles Mounting by Gary Reed

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good product for the price

Easy to install if you've done this type if you've worked before. If you have 2 Common / 2 Neutral you will need to use the push connectors on the back of the unit. Loosen the screw, place the cable(s) on the back of the device and tighten the screw to secure the cable(s). When making push-in connections, be sure to pull the wire. If the wire pulls slightly, slowly tighten the screw until the wire stops pulling. 14 gauge wire works well under the screw. 12 gauge wire is a little harder to get under the screw. The main design flaw of this device is that the screw that holds the terminal screws is not installed in the device. If you unscrew the clamp too far the bolt will fall into the unit and it will be impossible to screw the screw back in unless the unit is disassembled which will void the warranty. I haven't had any real issues with the unit so far and would recommend it as a good product for the price. One last thing as this might bother some people. There is a blue indicator (see image) that lights up when the outlet is on. This might be unsettling for some insomniacs, but for others it's reassurance that the outlet is working properly.

Pros
  • 15A/125V/1875W. Childproof design with tamper evident (TR)
Cons
  • I'll write later
