After announcing its latest USB-C in-wall outlet back in February, Leviton’s dual USB-C outlet is now available for purchase. The outlet features two standard receptacles as well as dual USB-C ports that can offer up to 30W of fast-charging power each, making it a slick solution for iPhone, iPad, MacBook, and more.
We previously reviewed Leviton’s in-wall outlet which includes a USB-A and USB-C port and found it to be a great upgrade for about $30.
For those who are interested in expanding their charging options while keeping a clean and simple aesthetic, Leviton’s Type A & Type C USB Charger/Receptacle is easy to recommend. Ranging from $26-$35 depending on color, it feels like a good value from a reputable company, especially when Apple’s 29W USB-C power adapter is $49 alone.
The latest variant of this outlet includes the same overheating safety features, convenience, and clean aesthetic as the other Leviton in-wall outlets with USB ports.

Leviton’s dual Type C USB in-wall charger/receptacle is available for $50 from retailers like Amazon, Home Depot, and more. That’s a notable jump from $30 that the USB-A and USB-C version goes for. So if you don’t mind having one of each port, or even prefer it, that model offers a better value.
