Hello Tom327Cat, we mentioned that UL is lined up because you can’t get UL certification until you’re in production with samples to run through UL’s physical testing process. We are raising the funds via Kickstarter in order to get into production. Regarding your comment about box size, we just posted an update on the

Hello All,

Hello Kiltedpadre, We’ve worked for a long time to ensure that this fits into a standard 18 cu. in. box so that retrofitting is an option. We’ll share some images of this soon via updates in our Kickstarter campaign.

Hello Canyoncliffs (love the long name by the way), We’ve discussed having a design with a larger number of USB ports. It will likely make our development roadmap but didn’t feel like the right design to launch with.

Hello SkekTek, Why would this design be any different than using an extension cord, power strip, or outlet expander when considering high drain products?

Hello Bobulous, I don’t have much feedback on the US vs. European designs but I will say that the sample you see in the video from this post is an early prototype that was used to show the intent of the design. You are absolutely right that there is movement that would not be acceptable in production. That’s why we’ve

Hey Sluggo65, The Adorne Pop-Out is a great design and is well executed. Our design is less expensive and provides more outlets to the consumer. We feel as though the added value and lower price will be attractive to a large audience. Time will tell...

Hello Hardman13, we can’t submit to UL until we’ve tooled and manufactured early rounds of the product. That being said, we’re going to submit for certification with cULus so we can distribute in the U.S. and Canada.

Hey Photophile, you could definitely take the approach of installing a quad outlet instead of our design, though we think that’s more work than most would want to do. Regardless, I just wanted to point out that our design is starting at $25, not the $70 you referenced. $70 would actually buy you three of theOUTlets

Hey JoHop, the thought is that these appliances are typically on the counter all the time and plugged in, but not necessarily turned on. People don’t always want to unplug things to be able to use other devices. Regarding the GFCI comment, you are required to have a GFCI feature upstream in these scenarios, not

Hey Pessimippopotamus, we definitely had to use some movie magic to pull that off with an early prototype. Our later prototypes and future production will of course not need assistance from the user. The springs will do all the work for you!

Hey GreenLED, this was one of the early prototypes and yes we had to help the opening force along a bit. In production (and our later prototypes) this will not be an issue.
