Our take on the 15 Amp GFCI Outlet with USB Ports and Fast Charge

A 15-amp tamper-resistant GFCI outlet with built-in USB ports and fast charging, meant to replace a standard wall receptacle in kitchens, bathrooms and other wet areas. It combines shock protection, two USB charging ports and two grounded outlets in one device, so you free up outlets for other plugs. It is a niche product: few GFCI receptacles include USB, so it mainly competes with a plain GFCI plus a separate USB wall charger.

Questions and answers

Does it need a special electrical box?: It needs a box deep enough for the GFCI body plus the USB circuitry. Check the box depth before buying; shallow boxes may not fit.
Can it be used outdoors?: Only if the cover and enclosure are rated for wet locations. The outlet itself is GFCI, but outdoor use needs a weather-resistant cover.
How fast do the USB ports charge?: The fast-charge port is quicker than a basic 1-amp USB outlet, but speed depends on the phone. It will not match a high-wattage dedicated charger.
Does it protect downstream outlets?: Yes. Wired correctly, the load terminals let one GFCI protect outlets further along the same circuit.
How often should I test it?: Test it monthly with the test and reset buttons, as with any GFCI. Replace it if it will not reset.
