Overview
The BRILLTECH USB Wall Outlet 10 Pack is a 15A rated wall receptacle that integrates one USB-C and one USB-A port into each outlet. UL-listed and featuring tamper-resistant shutters, this 10-pack is designed for homeowners, contractors, or office managers who want to add USB charging capability directly into the wall without bulky power strips. Each unit comes with a screwless wall plate for a clean, modern finish. Priced at around ¥16,611 for the set, it offers a cost-effective way to equip multiple rooms with built-in USB charging.
This product is best suited for new construction or renovation projects where you can install outlets in every room at once. The USB ports are adequate for charging smartphones, earbuds, and small tablets, but they do not support fast-charging protocols like Power Delivery or Qualcomm Quick Charge. If you need rapid charging for laptops or high-power devices, consider a dedicated PD wall outlet instead.
Connectivity & Compatibility
- Electrical rating: 15A, 125VAC (NEMA 5-15R)
- USB ports per outlet: 1× USB-C, 1× USB-A (typical output: 5V/2.4A shared, not specified)
- Tamper-resistant shutters prevent foreign object insertion
- Screwless wall plate for standard 1-gang junction boxes
- Indoor use only
Compatibility note: The outlet is designed for US-standard wall boxes (2-3/4″ deep recommended). In Japan, the physical dimensions match US-type boxes, but voltage (100V) and amperage are within safe limits. Always verify junction box compatibility and consult a licensed electrician for installation.
Product Info
- Release: Available since at least 2023 (exact date unconfirmed)
- Price: Approximately ¥16,611 for the 10-pack on online retailers
- Warranty: Not publicly detailed; rely on online retailers’s return policy
- Accessories: 10 screwless wall plates, mounting screws
- Availability: Sold through online retailers (imported by online retailers US)
Market positioning: Entry to mid-range. The main selling point is the 10-unit bundle, which significantly lowers the per-outlet cost compared to buying individual USB outlets. However, the lack of detailed USB output specifications means it is not aimed at power users who need fast charging. It is a practical solution for bulk installations where convenience and cost matter more than cutting-edge charging speed.
Best Use Cases
- Home renovation or new construction: Install USB outlets in multiple bedrooms, the kitchen, and living areas so that every family member can charge devices without searching for a power strip. Budget-conscious homeowners will appreciate the per-outlet savings.
- Office or retail space: Equip waiting areas, meeting rooms, or customer lounges with USB charging ports. The tamper-resistant feature adds safety in public environments. However, for high-traffic commercial use, consider outlets with higher-rated USB ports.
- DIY electrical projects: If you have experience with basic wiring, replacing a standard outlet with this USB model is straightforward. The screwless wall plate makes for a clean installation. But if you are not comfortable working with 120V/100V circuits, hire a professional.
Not recommended for users who need Power Delivery (PD) fast charging for laptops or tablets, or for those who cannot modify their existing wall boxes to fit US-style receptacles. Always check local electrical codes before installation.
