Thank you! I have been trying to get a local electrician to instal 4 quad for me - now I can do this!!! Perfect for the garage. Thank you
This will be great, I can now plug in my Four electric Space Heaters!
Interesting adaptation to the 4 or 6 outlet plug-in units that can be directly plugged into an original duplex outlet. I like the way that these units not only have the top outlets slightly off center from the lower ones but that the top ones are upside down ( for safety GND ) and the lower plug-ins are GND hole on the bottom. It gives you the best of both worlds. This would be handy for times when your cord plugs are 90 degree angled plugs or some "wall worts" take up more room and perhaps have the power cords at a different location other than bottom center. Thanks for the video .
The good thing about this is that if you decide later to only want one gang you can just remove it. No idea how I did not know about these. Thank You. Even better that it works with 4" boxes. Great if you need it for a temporary install as well
Good video and I like your attention to detail in explaining electrical work for beginners. I’ve done a lot of electrical over the years and find your advice (at least in this video) to be sound. I wasn’t aware of this product before, but apparently it’s been out for several years (perhaps the reason for the slotted screw as opposed to the multi with square drive option). Leviton makes it in several colors in both 15 amp and 20 amp versions as well as with surge protection. Industrial and hospital grade.
Awesome Idea. I just watched your video to add another receptacle to an existing box. Then I saw this video. PERFECT solution to double the receptacles in my garage. Thanks.
Great video! I've never seen one of those quad-receptacle outlets for a single-gang box before. I could use a few of those. Thanks for the video.
I’ll be installing one of these in my wife’s closet. Cool. Thank you.
Have several of these that I bought about 18 years ago. Very convenient for the computer room where the peripherals take very little current. Eliminates the need for "lightning" strips that clutter one’s floor or back of a desk. Very efficient!
Yes, this is exactly what I need for my garage. I was going to add another duplex receptacle next to another. With this it doesn’t even look like I’ll need a new faceplate!!
New subscriber. Algorithm brought me here. I love diy home projects but i would never ever attempt electrical work. Yet, i sat through a few of these electrical related videos. Excellent method of explaining, kept my attention and I certainly learned a few things!
In my shop I want to finish the walls with 3/4 plywood and I think this receptacle will be perfect if the screws are long enough Thank you for sharing Big fan in Tennessee
This receptacle has saved my Man Cave! LED strips everywhere. LOL Thanks for introducing it to me and LOVE the videos! Keep up the fantastic work!
Another terrific video. Simple, straightforward, succinct. Terrific.
This is a great option, somewhere between a power strip and installing a two-gang box with a second receptacle. While I hadn't see this before, I have seen a device that looks almost exactly like this, except it has a pair of plugs in the back. For that device, you remove the cover from your receptacle, plug it in, and then use the included screw in the middle to anchor it in.
I've been dreading having to cut through paneling and lathe and plaster wall to install a double gang that has been sitting on my table for the past two months. I'm going to buy this. It seems they're out of stock but the hospital-grade is available, thank you. It's going behind the couch so I don't care for the one inch that sticks out.
Pretty neat. I’d pay the extra cost to save the work. Just added pegboard in garage and changed single to double. Had to extend out and was a lot of work. This would have saved me quite some time and gave me the results I wanted. Got two more to do and going to check these out 👍
Thanks, I just happened to see this video when I was planning on going to the store tomorrow and buying two receptacles. Great Video.
Excellent video, with very clear instructions. Thanks! I would opt to pay a little extra and use the hospital grade version.
