The claimed limit is 15 amps (120*15=1800 watts) But in practice I'd not trust them over 1,000... I used to plug 1500 watt space heaters into 'em. got Hot wire smell, and overload.. I can explain why (Bad design) so I added some HD outlets (15/20 amp) Fed with genuine 12 ga wire bent around a screw and TIGHTened instead of punched down in a slot like phone cable... Much better, No hot wires.
