Default (OT) Electric wall outlets.

I need to go to the Lowe's store today for a few things, including a few
new electric wall outlets to replace some old worn out ones.They sell
them from less than one dollar each, up to about five or six dollars
each.Why is there so much difference in the prices? They all look the
same to me, and I am not talking about the kind with GFI either.I don't
want GFI wall outlets, they SUCK!

I have a Plug Grip,
www.pluggrip.com I bought at Lowe's a few
months ago.I am just iching to try it out.Of course I will flip the
circuit breakers before I start messin with those wall outlets.
cuhulin, get a Grip on that plug


The ones that sell for a buck are the kind that wear out and need
frequent replacing. I use the Copper Aluminum grade duplex outlets.

We use the medium expensive ones for power distros; and we use "hospital
grade" orange ones for anal retentive clients with lots of cash.
