Can this be used on a single outlet by cutting off the white plastic piece on the back?

You could make that modification, but you would not be able to use the center screw to hold it to the wall. i think there would be times it might fall out of the outlet when there are several cords attached.

For optimum performance, we do not recommend cutting any part of the SurgeMaster, Kev. Belkin Cares MANUFACTURER. I would follow manufactures recommendation. Ed.

It is confusing at first, seeing the plastic piece, but it is a stabilizer for the unit, and on the one I bought allows you to remove the outlet plate and them firmly screw in the unit into the where the plate screw was. Otherwise, each time you pulled a plug, the whole unit would come out. Not good if you have a computer plugged in!

Yes, I believe you can. Just remember, if using the 3 function trim, to now cap off the left side outlet. It doesn't matter with the 6 function

Yes...however if your current outlet plate is oversized you may have problems. I had difficulty getting the outlet into the box in the wall because it is quite deep, so make sure you have plenty of depth for it. We really like this outlet...saves space on the counter by allowing 2 regular plugs plus 2 USB plugs. I really like that it turns off the inverter while a usb cable is not pugged in. Just remember where you put your adapter that you took off your USB plug, just in case you need it to travel or something. Hope this helps.

We recently moved, so I can't locate it to tell you for sure. If I remember correctly, it only has a hole in the middle to secure to the outlet. I don't know that you could modify it without cracking it.

I would separate the circuits, that plug feature is nice for charging my cell phone but not running large tools.

Oh yes, indeed. It's a bit large and tends to cover up more than its share of a double outlet plate, but yes the plug is right in the back of it. And if you had the right converters you could take it abroad!

Yes and No. There is only one plug on a single end. It has both a male and a female receptacle, so you can plug up to two together, but no more.

If you wanted to cut it off or bend the wire you could probably take it off. I don't know if you would be able to put it back. You would need tools.

You can cut this with scissors. I used it for a few different groups of cords.

I guess you could but I don't know why you would. Whatever you shred would drop down to be chopped since it is all in one receptacle.

Yes, if you are handy as someone else stated you could do a notch by your hole that you cut thought the wall, may need to do a little notch on the fan cover. Can't remember how long the cord is but it could be spliced or replaced. Also not very hard to run an outlet from one side of the wall to the other to get power there.

I would think that you could splice the wire, but the cord and power adaptor (supplied) is so convenient if you have a 110v rec. nearby. You will need a rec. to supply your reciever and you will be able to turn your power off once it locks in to sats. installation was easy if you are somewhat mechanical.

Yes, I believe so. I can plug two of these into one outlet, if that is what you mean. (one on top of the other). The switch to turn on or off is on the side so you can still access it.

No, it's a 2 piece unit. The only way to remove is to cut it off from plastic base.

Without seeing a picture of your existing switch, I'm not really sure but reading your question, I don't think this will work. The belkin will takes up the entire outlet space and will interfere with the switch.

No, it is a solid piece of plastic but I see no reason you couldn't cut one if it was needed.
