    WTF are you talking about this time?
    No need to be vulgar, my pet. Anyway if you are not aware of the difference between duel and dual then you need to visit with Grammar a little more. You're the one who named this thread.

    From what I read about it, this also turns off the USB while not actually charging.
    Most chargers still remain energized, even when not charging, from what I've read. That's what's called "vampire" power.
    Theoretically, these could actually end up saving you money, if you were to do it yourself.
    Vampire power has been HUGELY overhyped. The MSM outlets a year or two ago used to have, on a regular basis, prefessional liars who would tell how much they saved by unplugging all of their unused cords. According to the greenies, the vampire power usage in my house is greater than what my electric bill shows for my entire usage.
    I don't mind being called far right.
    I have been right so far.

    Thought it might save installations fees for some of you who leery about the installation of the other type which Lowe's also have in the electrical section. Plus, take it with you on a trip.
