Power2U AC/USB Wall Outlet
Ever have one of those moments when you say “why didn’t I think of that?!” Yes, I have! When a friend told me about the Power2U AC/USB wall outlet, I immediately ordered one. Finally, a way to stop the clutter of power adapters, USB cables and countless charging cords hanging around the kitchen getting in the way. Now you can charge and/or power up to four devices at once when using the USB 3.0/2.0 ports and standard three-prong outlets.
The Newer Technology Power2U AC/USB Wall Outlet is a simple installation. The video on the Power2U website is fully explanatory. (Make sure you are confident of doing this yourself or just ask a friend who may know how to change a wall plug outlet for you. Make SURE the power is OFF!!) What I especially like about the Power2U unit is that it is UL approved. (I trust the UL label and look for it on all my electrical needs.) As a matter of fact, Power2U is the first home-safe, fully UL Listed and approved product of its kind!
You’ll save money using this product as well because the Smart Power design only outputs enough charging power required by the attached device, (which means when your device is charged, it turns OFF! No more overcharging or banging your battery! When charged, spring-loaded Safety Shutters turn power off to the USB ports to eliminate “vampire” energy draw when a connecting cable is removed. Yeah, who knew there were vampire suckers with electricity!
So when I come home, I just plug in my phone, my ipod and other devices and no bulky adapters hogging all the plugs in the kitchen! Brilliant!!

Update: I wanted to take the Power2U portable so I had a friend (electrician) make the Power2U portable which allows me to locate the outlet on my computer desk or in any location I desire. This could be an alternative for any user.

Whitney Houston
So tragic. The loss of a soul who touched so many with her angelic voice. Barbra Streisand tweeted “She had everything, beauty, a magnificent voice. How sad her gifts could not bring her the same happiness they brought us.” Thank You Whitney for adding such joy to my life with your music. May the light of Heaven bring Whitney Houston eternal peace.
I found a music soundtrack that is so peaceful and inspiring.
