Power Outlet With SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Charge Ports Now Shipping!
Do you remember the power outlet that had the built-in USB connectors that we showed you back in December 2009 here? The TruePower UCS has been completely redesigned and is now called the U-Socket. FastMac, the company making the USB outlet, has finally begun shipping the outlets! They cost $19.95 and you can take a look at them here.
FastMac U-Socket Specifications:
- Input voltage: AC 100 to 125V 50/60Hz
- Output voltage: USB: DC 5.0V 2100mA (2.1 amps)
- Operation temperature: 0 to 35 Degrees Celsius (32 to 95 Degrees Fahrenheit)
Celebrate, oh U-Socket faithful, for thy object of convenient desire has finally started shipping. FastMac’s wall socket that serves up a pair of standard 110V power outlets alongside two USB juice ports is today taking the final steps to reaching its expectant owners’ homes. Confirmation emails have been sent out to those who ordered earliest (we’ve got one for your perusal after the break) and the retail site promises a three- to four-week delivery time for orders placed today. The price is still just under $20, while the utility of being able to plug your USB device directly into the wall has probably never been higher.
