Is it possible to use two of these vertically, i.e., plugged in side-by-side in a horizontally-oriented outlet?

Yes, I believe so. I can plug two of these into one outlet, if that is what you mean. (one on top of the other). The switch to turn on or off is on the side so you can still access it.

You can see a photo of how two would fit into a single outlet if you look at the listing for "2 Pack Belkin Power Conserve Switch".

A typical outlet has 2 sockets, one on top of the other. You can use 2 of these, one on top of the other and the control switches are in the right hand side.

Yes. The unit extends laterally from the plug, i.e., perpendicular to the blades, so they will work in one outlet. Be aware that depending on the orientation of the grounding hole, the switch for the Belkin unit could be up and useful, or down, where you cannot see the switch and the power-on light. (CORRECTED ANSWER.)

This unit plugs in right, smack over an unprotected two-gang outlet. Assuming your adjacent coax is not within a half inch of the two-gang outlet, you're good. I would think that you would have side-by-side j-boxes anyway. That said, if your coax(es) are next to your plug outlet (even butted right up) you will be fine.

Hello. I think you should be able to, but it takes up a little bit more space than a typical plug in, so just keep that in mind. Hope this info helps.

Yes, but you have to run wire to connect both of them if in a new place. if you are combining where there was an electric outlet, you may just have to run co-axel cable to combine in one box like this. it is a very convenient setup but be aware that this unit is not rated fire proof so in some walls where critical, beware of fire codes.

Both outlets turn on simultaneously. There is no separate control for each outlet.

We bought one from another online store and the outlet needs to be vertical. (one on top of the other). Every plug we have is vertical in the entire house. You "could' use it but it defeats the purpose of holding two phones off the counter to charge. It should be flipable to accommodate horizontal plugs. Seemly would work fine. Just check your outlets.

No, that is fixed. So in one standard wall outlet with two outlets you can only use one of the devices.

Yes, plus the plug that goes into the wall turns 360 degrees so the three outlets can be positioned horizontally or vertically.

There is room for one plug in the BOB. So you would need another BOB, or something like a lockable power strip plugged into the locking plug port on the BOB.

on my vertical outlets, it does NOT cover the lower socket. It has two prongs. It does extend a few inches above the socket. I don't have any side-by-side outlets to try it out on

No, I have it plugged in on the top (upside down) so the cables come in that direction. The bottom outlet is open and being used.
2274767
yes, you can. My wall outlet was also installed upside down so I had to plug mine in upside down. The "down side" is that you will see the phone cords now on the top and not the bottom.

I'm pretty sure, though i'm not a professional installer or anything. If the space below is big enough, but not too big, i think the hardest problem will be making an adapter to fork the cables to get both sets of wires plugged in.

Yes you can. I've never used it exclusively for one but if I plug it in before my other one it'll go up!

I am not sure, but if you couldn´t just plug both ports, it probably means it isn´t possible, since there is a single "on" switch...

I haven't tried it, but think you can by setting the same dip switch position on both the two receptacles and the switch. You can confirm by calling the manufacturer customer support @ 1-800-858-8501

Yes if u plug it in the top one but plug it in the bottom and you have 3 plugs to use 2 in the belkin and one wall outlet. Nice item to have
