I understand it's a 3-prong plug into the wall. But can I put 2-PRONG plugs in the side openings?

Yes you can. I also found a converter, so it will plug into an older two-prong opening. I stay in a lot of older hotels, so I need the flexibility.

You can plug in a two prong plug easily, but a three prong plug may be a no go.

If you are in the US it has a standard wall plug without the ground, so the plug has two prongs.

I don't think so but I have not worked with he wall plug enclosure yet. It is my understanding that there is a special power supply for that enclosure in order for everything to fit inside and mount to the outlet. You can learn more and get a more definitive answer at the Open-mesh web site.

It is a 3 prong connection. Plugging into a 2 prong adapter may defeat the purpose of the surge protection

In response to your question, you've probably found this out already, but for everyone else out there: this covers up both plugs. I found a review for the 3 pack version of this product where they said that it does cover up the other plug. So, you'll probably need one of those "plug expanders" for the wall plug so you can plug in more than one thing to the wall.

If it's plugged into the bottom outlet (in any orientation) or the top outlet (while sideways) there is access to the other open outlet for a standard 3 or 2 prong plug but not a large brick.

It would depend on what you want to plug into the top socket, as bigger plugs might not fit, but no it doesn't officially take up both sockets (I can plug two prong plugs in the top socket but not bulky three prongs)

I would. We're talking about an electrical item here. No way I would plug it in with two holes in it.

3, bought this 2 weeks ago thinking it was an adabter. It's not, 3 prongs go into the wall and give you more outlets

Need to look at the original plug and see if it has two or three prongs. Not where it plugs into wall which should have three, but where that wire plugs into the adaptor.

My latest charger is a 2 prong to plug into the wall. Unless you mean the part from the chord to the charger

This unit has a two-pronged plug, normal type. It doesn't have the 3-pronged with ground.

You would be better off the changing the two(2)prong outlet for a three(3)prong.for ground protection.And for a two or three dollars investment,you will be safe

The plug that I received had a three-pronged plug (for the plug that goes into the wall). So it had the grounding prong, if that's what you're asking about.

Yes. There is room for the other plug if you use it on top. You can plug in the bottom outlet and use a 2 pronged plug on top, but not a 3 pronged grounded plug.

Yes, you can put two of these oversized plugs into a two socket outlet because they are 2-prong, rather than 3-prong. One outlet will face up and down and the other will face the opposite direction. I love my Flappy and not having to depend on batteries is the frosting on my cake. Emjoy!
