- tkems 3y agoWhile I think this is a great idea, I've seen these in public places and the USB-A sockets almost always get damaged. I'd be worried about having to replace a $40-50 receptacle every year or two if I happened to bump the cable and wanted to keep using the USB part. Still a good idea overall and I can see them being used in a few places around my home to save space. Also, I'd love to see ones with 65w charging so I can charge my laptop and still have an outlet to use!
- upon_drumhead 3y agoHow about 60w? https://a.co/d/eBLEVjC https://a.co/d/eBLEVjC There are a few no-name brands with 65w, but I don’t trust them. Just note, they are much larger than normal outlets and can be a squeeze to fit in a normal box.
