Review on VICOUP Multi Outlet Extender: Surge Protector with 3 USB Ports for Home and Office - Essential USB Outlet Adapter Splitter by Edwin White

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Does what it's supposed to do, but has flaws.

I liked the inclusion of USB sockets. However, when the device is mounted on the wall, it sags too much. If you have a plug that fits snugly, you run the risk of pulling the device out of the wall as it bends left or right. I tightened the top and bottom screws of the original socket as tight as possible. I then screwed it into the center of the socket with a screw. It still bends. If you leave things on all the time, it's not a problem. But if you need to plug and unplug, then structurally this unit is not reliable enough. There are two lights: red and green. Red is clearly visible. The green is almost invisible. I hold it and put a hand on the device when I need to unplug it. This is the best solution I can find.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • old
