A wall mountable connector is configured for securing a thermostat to a wall. The wall mountable connector is further configured to provide electrical connections with field wires exiting the wall and in turn to provide electrical connection with the thermostat. In some instances, the wall mountable connector is configured to provide easier connections with the field wires. In some cases, for example, the wall mountable connector is configured to better accommodate more commonly used field wires, and in some cases, space the more commonly used field wires from one another.

A desktop USB-charger related product has space to receive an AC power-wire, USB-charger wire, or another charging related wire(s). The USB-charger related product is arranged to be installed on a desk top at a hand-reachable distance from a user by attachment so that there is no need for the user to bend body or knee in order to charge a device using the charger. The USB-charger related product has at least one USB-port that can supply a desired output-current in the range of from 1.0 A to 12 A and 3.5 VDC to 8.5 VDC by converting input AC power ranging from 110 VAC to 250 VAC. The USB-charger product may also optional to incorporate at least one additional device such as an AC outlet, sensor, motion sensor, remote control, time display, LEDs, other lights, a power fail device, a smell device, an audio device, a video device.

An illumination module is provided that can be inserted into a receptacle that includes a wall and may be mounted on a support surface, such as a heat sink, and the illumination module include a cover and an LED assembly rotateably coupled to the cover. The LED assembly seats within the receptacle which causes terminals of the LED assembly to align with contacts on the receptacle. One of the cover and the receptacle can have a plurality of ramps and the other a plurality of shoulders. The cover can be rotated relative to the receptacle to cause the shoulders to slide relative to the ramps so as to direct the LED assembly into the receptacle. When the LED assembly is attached to the receptacle, the terminals on the LED assembly mate with the contacts on the receptacle.

Exemplary drone operations support base embodiments disclosed herein may be used to shelter, repower, and/or service drones associated therewith. A drone operations support base may include an enclosure with an entryway that permits drone ingress and egress with respect to the enclosure. Drone launching/landing, drone storage and drone power source repowering areas may be associated with a given drone base. A transfer device may be provided to move drones between the various drone base areas. The transfer device may also be adapted to transfer drone power sources between the drone repowering area and drones located elsewhere within the drone base for repowering of the power sources and of the drones.
