Electricity is pretty much the life blood of people nowadays. Nothing runs without power. Our electronics have evolved so much over the years, and we really haven’t updated our homes and offices, to keep up. It’s not always convenient to plug in adapters. It’s aesthetically not pretty to look at. They can be bulky, and knocked out the outlet easily. I also experience a lot of issues with a lot of fast charging adapters. I have them burn out a lot, and/or they get really hot to the touch, while in use. I have other outlets from this company, and they are really nice. My husband is a commercial electrician, so he is picky about the outlets we install and use. He really likes their products as well. This particular outlet is one of their newer ones. It is the first “In-Wall Qualcomm® Certified Quick Charge 3.0 USB charger featuring up to 4X faster Charging to Enabled Devices”. That’s impressive, and I feel assured going into a new product, seeing that certification. This particular outlet actually arrives with three different colored face plates. The white cover arrives installed on the unit, and a separate beige, and black cover, are individually wrapped in the box. A surprise to me, was that this time, they included a micro USB cord with this outlet. We just use android devices, so we love that. But then, most items, other than phones and tablets, use micro USBs to charge as well. This particular outlet has 1 – 3 prong plug outlet, and 2 –   2.4Amp max output, according to the devices’ power needs, ports. It will not over charge your item, as well as give it more power than it needs. It has smart charging as well as fast charging abilities.

We installed this outlet in our kitchen that’s being renovated. Kitchen areas tend to be a hub, for most families. It’s nice to be able to just plug in charge. Our devices link up right away with this outlet. With their included cord, or our other Samsung fast charger cords, it actually comes up on our phones as Fast Charging. It is most definitely a fast charger. We can charge our phones from almost dead, to full, in about 30-40 minutes. A task, which normally takes at least two hours on regular chargers. Our phones actually tell you when you have real fast charging going on. So, I most definitely believe their claims on this outlet. This outlet is a normal install. It sits a little deeper than some basic outlets, but most boxes are sized to accept these larger ones. It sits 1 ½” deep. It can also be installed in a GFCI outlet too. It can be tricky to remove their faceplates. There is a little indent on the end of the plate. You can place a butter knife, or flat head screwdriver, into this area, and pop it off, if needed. We used the white plate that came installed on it. Now, you do need to supply your own Cover plate for this outlet. They can be found easily at your local hardware store. We went with a stainless steel one for this outlet. This 15A outlet is also tamper proof in case you have little children. Some can’t resist trying to push things into outlets. So, no worries with this one. Overall, this is a great working product. It is reliable and made well. It was easy to install and supplies actual fast charging, as described.

An incredible power station. – Ocean Technology’s UNITEK 10-Port(with 1 Port QC 2.0) USB Charger Charging Station for Multiple Device with SmartIC Tech. https://cspierdowis.com/an-incredible-power-station-ocean-technologys-unitek-10-portwith-1-port-qc-2-0-usb-charger-charging-station-for-multiple-device-with-smartic-tech/ https://cspierdowis.com/an-incredible-power-station-ocean-technologys-unitek-10-portwith-1-port-qc-2-0-usb-charger-charging-station-for-multiple-device-with-smartic-tech/#respond Wed, 13 Apr 2016 00:39:07 +0000 https://cspierdowis.com/?p=3595

If you have a family of electronics, you need this charging station. It is powerful, and oh so handy to have and use! There are a total of 10 USB ports on this charging station from Unitek, sold by Ocean Technologies. Each port can deliver a charge up to 2.4A, and 1 port is a QC 2.0A port. This is a 60W unit. This port has a different color inside of it, so easy to see. It is the port all the way on the right. All the ports offer a nice snug fit. The power cord comes in 2 pieces and attaches into the left side of this stand. This is the coolest stand too. It comes with 10 plastic dividers, that push into the grooves on top of the unit. You can set them up any way you want, or leave the off all together. With them on, you can stand your charging items between those dividers. I put several on, in a wider configuration, and was able to stand my power banks up between them, while charging them. I love how organized that is. It takes up so much less space this way as well. Since each port delivers so much power, you can actually charge a lot of items at one time. Most of my items require the larger amps, so this is perfect for me. I can charge phones, tablets, batteries, and power banks, all at one time. This is what they said about the QC port: “The 1 charging port with Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0, which allow certain Qualcomm Snapdragon based devices charge up to 75% faster than devices that use conventional charging methods.” I think that’s pretty impressive, myself. This unit is larger, but does not have a built in fan. Even so, it only gets a little warm to the touch while charging. It comes with a US plug, but can accept voltage worldwide: 100-240V input. So, if you do a lot of traveling, just bring a plug adapter with you, and you are good. This charging station is even energy efficient. It received the highest rating from the U.S. Department of Energy of DOE 6. I like knowing that. It’s a smart charger, and supplies what you need to your unit, as well as, it won’t over charge your item. That is an important feature as well. So far so good for me with this charger. It is performing perfectly, and I am loving it.
