Quick Cable Corporation (Quick Cable), a Franksville, Wisconsin, based company that manufactures portable power packs. Quick Cable sold or offered for sale portable power packs in California, from January 2015 to January 2019. 

This case was the result of an investigation performed by California Energy Commission (CEC) staff. CEC's investigation and testing process identified that Quick Cable was manufacturing and offering for sale portable power packs containing small battery charging systems that did not meet the efficiency standard and were not certified to the Modernized Appliance Efficiency Database System (MAEDbS). 

To settle this matter, Quick Cable executed a Settlement Agreement with CEC on November 21, 2019, for $190,861.00. The penalty monies are deposited into the Appliance Efficiency Enforcement Subaccount established by SB 454 of 2011 (Pavley). Quick Cable has also agreed to a compliance plan to redesign the non-compliant model to meet the efficiency standard and certify all models to MAEDbS before continuing to sell in California.
