does it work on standard house wall socket ? OR it trips ? ( all settings - low to high ) Please reply .

yes the optimus h-4501 14 inch oscillation heater does run on standard wall socket

It trips (presumably because it overheats triggering a safety switch, not the breaker in the electric circuit) when plugged into a standard wall socket (no extension cord). It trips at HIGH setting 1200 watts but does not trip at 800 watts. She set it closer to herself and gets along at the lower setting with considerable complaint. Sorry to have been unclear in the original review which I was trying to keep short.

I have it plugged into standard house wall socket.... so happy to have it during this cold snap! I think whether or not the heater trips the fuses, would depend on the wiring in the house.

The wall outlet in US is "rated for 20A". if the heater and other power hug user are plugged in on the same place, then it might. So far i have only plugged it in a single outlet and has not tripped the curcuit braker so far.

This works on standard household 110v. The only hosehold things that run on higher voltage would be an electric oven, dryer, and air conditioner. If not in the US get the appropriate converter for where you are located.

Dear Demetre,I am the kind of guy who keeps useful extra items. The darn hub didn't work when it came. I read someone's comment that the power adapter was too small, so I looked in my stash of power packs [some people call them "Wall Warts!"] and found one rated 5V 1Amp. Since then, it has worked, but it's junky - the sockets do not fit smoothly. I notice that everyone else is using 3 - 5 Amps. The item they sent to me was tiny and it was much weaker than my 1 Amp unit.

Nothing. Nothing in the wiring touches ground, and external to the bulb, all the wiring is AC, so it should work normally and not hurt anything.

If there are a set of contacts (like from the push button on the wall), you can tie into that and it should work. It should be low voltage, however (+/- 5 volts).

I dont know if this answers your question but it worked on the normal outlet.. I didnt really use it very much because it was horrible, tiny black pixels would appear on and off sporadically on the screen making it fuzzy and poor. Dont recommend getting this even for its low price.

The switch on this one can't be worked into a normal wall outlet. It is configured to be supported by a battery. There are similar switches out there that can be installed in standard wall fixtures and can even pull power from the switch box. This is not one of them.

It is standard house current. I just plugged it into to wall. Sorry, that's the best I can do. Hope it answers your question.

I am not sure, but both of the answers on here are wrong! GTC trips so near water an accidental ground short (through you) trips it off. Mine does it for all the plugs in my house through the main circuit box.

It works fine on a standard, grounded (3-prong) outlet. It takes about as much power as a coffee pot.

Does it do the same in other outlets? You could be overloading the circuit if it's old or sharing the power with other devices. Most home breakers aren't rated much higher than the electrical draw on the steamer. I would try in other outlets and see if it does the same thing. Good luck.

I didn't understand the question at first. I think you're asking if it works on the high and low setting. Yes, it does. I usually just use the high setting. If this is about plugging it into another voltage outlet of some sort, then I do not know.

Anything that takes voltage can be connected to a wall switch.. and yes, i connected mine to a wall switch. just leave nob in on position and use wall switch to turn off/on... only negative is you wont be able to change settings (low/high) on wall switch. That didnt matter to me.. even less so when "low" stopped working on me :(

I'm not positive but this socket remembers is setting after power outage; don't recall ever having a power outage during it's use.As a test, what I would do is flip the circuit breaker, wait a minute and turn the breaker back on. We may both learn something.Sorry, that's the best I could do.

I don't have an answer for you. My guess is your unit is "fried". I had two friends who had surge protector power strips, not Sidesocket, catch fire. I'm glad they were home!

If this is X10 switch, it may still work. The reason for this, I have an old outlet x10, but when my new mini controller X10 came, it enable to control the outlet, provided you set the zone and house code correctly. I hope helps!

It only requires a regular U.S plug and wall socket. You can put on a surge protector (recommended) so that it doesn't blow as any other household item might. I hope that answers your questions, I'm not hugely router literate. To date, this router is working beautifully though, especially if you need to port forward for server hosting. I've got four game servers running and have had no issues.
