When plugged in the outlet, does this adapter interfere with plugging in a cord in the other part of the outlet?

I have a side-by-side outlet and it does not prevent me from plugging anything into the other side.

No it does not. It is just the right size and you can still use the other socket, at least in my case I still can :) Hope this helps!

No, the adapter is designed to fit in the bottom outlet leaving the top one accessible. Good thinking on the engineer's part!

No it will only block one if you plug it into the top part of the standard outlet. Doing this will leave room for another plug in. However, if you plug it into the bottom socket then both will be covered. Works like a charm

Does not completely block the second socket. Can still use the other socket depending on what type of plug you have, preferably the old 2 prong rectangular plug. Bulky adapters like Apple or Samsung chargers will definitely not fit along with this.

It can, but it has about the same size factor as a fairly large DC adapter, so it may block other outlets. It has a 3 prong plug, so that has to be factored into account. It would fit best on one of those strips that is specifically designed for using adapters. Also, the cord from the device that you are controlling plugs into the bottom of the device, at a right angle to the plug, so that needs to be figured in as well.

No. I have a power block plugged in and was able to use the outlets next to it. Very nice power strip at a good price.

It will plug into the adapter fine. Mine did. I will warn you though. My dryer sounded as if it might be getting too much electricity--sounded very funny. I ceased using my dryer and used the one that came with the room. The adapters work for everything else. Believe me, I had the same question, but again, it plugs in fine. It has extra space for other types of plugs.

No. The rise is slight but seems to make a big difference in connecting. I've even had to shave some recharging cords to make the plug thinner

Yes, the plug cord is separate from the DC adapter. Both parts are part of the order.

It matches the layout of the male connector on the adapter. The plastic pin interferes with plugging it onto the device.

Yes. I just checked and the plug is not polarized (one plug larger). Both prongs are same size. One could be installed upside down. The cord would be routed up rather than down but both AC Adapters can be pluged into a single duplex receptacle.

No. The adapter plug inserts into car cigarette lighter which draws power from the car battery.

I've only had that happen when the plug is loose on the handle end, not the outlet. Other than that, I don't know.

No, unfortunately it needs a few inches clearance in front of the outlet to be able to plug into it.

Yes to the first question. The second -- it won't take up both outlet if you put it in the upper outlet and use a regular plug on the bottom outlet. I like it a lot.

It can be plugged into a regular outlet, but because of its shape it will cover the second plug outlet rendering it unusable while using the device.

No, but I haven't found that to be a problem. The outlet plugins are in different rooms, and although the range is good, I keep moving the control itself between rooms. The velcro option mentioned is a good solution if you need to mount it.

No. I purchased the adapter and nothing happened. It's a great deal for the price. Hoping that some wizard figures out how to make it happened!
