USB/AC Charger Keeps Personal Electronics Ready For Use

Bringing personal electronics aboard is essential for many boaters. Combining USB and electrical power outlets in a single device, Hubbell's USB Charger Receptacles ensure tech-savvy owners and their guests can keep multiple items charged and ready for use.

With two USB ports, this receptacle is compatible with any USB 1.1, 2.0 or 3.0 electronic devices. This includes mobile phones, smart phones, digital readers, MP3 players, GPS units or tablet computers. While most competitive units produce only 2 amps or less, Hubbell's USB Charger Receptacle provides a full 3 amps of USB power. That's enough to charge two tablets at the same time. The twin 15 amp, 125V AC outlets stand ready for traditional electrical plugs.

If the receptacle becomes overloaded, it cycles off briefly, then returns to normal function without manual resetting. A green LED light indicates USB power availability.

Adding style, this USB Charger Receptacle features the company's Style Line decorator finish and measures 2.62" H x 1.3" W. It installs in a standard electrical box deeper than 1.5" with internal AC/MC clamps.

Offered in black, gray, ivory, light almond and white, the Hubbell USB Charger Receptacle retails for $49.99.
