LIDER PD 36W Power Delivery USB-C Outlet - Duplex Tamper-Resistant

In this review of the LIDER PD 36W Power Delivery USB-C Outlet, the bottom line is simple: it is a practical in-wall upgrade for anyone who wants tidy, fast USB-C charging without cluttering counters with adapters. The reviewer found the duplex tamper-resistant receptacle particularly useful in kitchens, home offices, and living rooms where aesthetics matter and reliable charging matters more. Installation is straightforward for those comfortable with basic electrical work, and the compact, white face cover provides a clean, minimalist look that blends into most interiors.

Key Features

• Dual USB-C PD: Two Type-C ports deliver up to 36W combined, allowing simultaneous charging of phones and tablets with Power Delivery profiles for efficient charging.
• Tamper-resistant duplex: The built-in tamper-resistant receptacle keeps the standard AC outlets safe in family areas while still providing full 15/20 Amp 125VAC functionality.
• Durable construction: Polycarbonate thermoplastic housing with a UL94 V2 rating resists heat and fading so the outlet keeps its appearance over time.
• Compact, matching design: The included white wall plate and low-profile face cover are designed to blend with typical home and office decors for a neat installation.
• Easy installation: Clear step-by-step instructions and easy-to-use terminals speed up wiring for installers using #14-#12 AWG copper only.

Who It's For

The LIDER PD 36W outlet is best for homeowners, landlords, and small office owners who want to replace a standard duplex receptacle with integrated USB-C charging to reduce on-counter adapters and deliver faster charging for modern devices. It is a good fit in kitchens, bedside outlets, home offices, and common areas where appearance and convenience matter.

It is not ideal for someone who needs more than two high-power USB-C ports or for installations that require aluminum wiring, as the unit is specified for copper conductors only. Users who are uncomfortable with basic electrical wiring should hire a licensed electrician rather than attempt DIY installation.
