Thank you for your generous donation to our Electrical Technology program here at Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology. The Pluggrip products that your company had provided are being used on a daily basis and the interest in them as a permanent part of the students' tool selection is overwhelming. We are encouraging our students to purchase these tools via your web site, and we will be requiring them as part of the next year tool selection for our incoming freshmen.

As a safety feature for electrical installations, we will, also, be highlighting these tools as part of our safety and OSHA training. As a seasoned electrician and educator, I have always marveled at the ingenuity of some individuals who develop such products as the Pluggrip to ease the installation process and provide the extra measure of safety we so need in this industry.

Again, we thank you for your thoughtful contribution and look forward to continuing our relationship in the future. Have a pleasant day.

Respectfully,

Jon Kramer

Instructor - Electrical Technology

We received the tools yesterday. I had a class this morning, and we were working on an outlet, 1/2 controlled by a switch. Of course, the first student plugged in the little yellow "correct wiring"device, and saw the outlet was off. Never checked the always live side. I gave him your red plug grip to help him take out th receptacle, and was he surprised when one of the lights lit up! (I later showed them how to use a ticker).

Your device provides a safe way to remove a receptacle, and take it out far enough to check connections.

I previously submitted that you add a level to the device. May you can also add a "Black" and "White" notice on the side of the tool, just to add to less problems.

Your device makes it easy to put the receptacle back into the box, without wasting time trying to get the left and right sides of the receptacle even with the wall.

A great product!

I am showing it to a few of my contractor friends, and I am sure they will order some tools for their crews.

Thank you so much for sending the samples...my students will order them for their use.

In a few days we will try the switch pluggin in class.

Again, Thank You!

A.S.

"Good morning my name is David and I am a member of the USAF currently serving in Afghanistan. Part of my mission is to train the Afghan Military and contractors on electrical work. I was wondering would you be willing to supply us with any tools like you supply to the schools. Thank you in advance for your time. Thanks David"



We were blessed to receive this email from one of our hero's serving in Afganistan and we were excited to grant his request. We hope to hear from him again soon!
