Description
A double 13A socket with USB charging built into the plate, finished in strawberry with a chrome insert. Rocker switches control the power points, and neon indicators show at a glance when they are live. Four USB-A ports sit alongside, with the ports on each side sharing their output, so a phone and a set of headphones can charge while the sockets stay in use. The flat screwless plate keeps the front clean, with nothing on the face to break up the colour.
We would fit this where a socket does double duty: a bedside table, a kitchen worktop where a tablet props against the tiles, a desk in a home office, or a spare room where guests arrive with an armful of chargers. It does away with the plug adaptors that crowd a power point, and a lamp or a kettle keeps its place while phones charge. It is for indoor rooms on a household supply, and it should stay clear of bathrooms and anywhere it might be splashed.
The plate and rockers are moulded polycarbonate, and the chrome insert gives the strawberry a crisper edge. Colour like this reads best against pale paint or a tiled splashback, where it works as a small piece of trim rather than something that vanishes into the wall. To clean, switch it off, wipe the plate with a barely damp cloth and dry it at once; cream cleaners and solvents will dull both the moulding and the chrome. It carries a ten year warranty. We would keep the other plates nearby in plain chrome or white so the strawberry stays the one piece of colour in the room.

Frequently Asked
How much charging power do the USB ports give?
There are four USB-A ports rated at 10W, shared per side, so two devices on the same side split that output between them.
Can each socket be switched off on its own?
Yes. Both power points have their own rocker switch, each with a neon indicator so you can see when it is on.
What size is the plate?
It measures 146mm long by 88mm high, and it sits on a 47mm depth band.
What is it made from?
The plate and rockers are moulded polycarbonate in a strawberry finish, with a chrome insert.
Is it suitable for a bathroom or a utility area that gets wet?
No. It is rated IP20, so it belongs in dry indoor rooms only.
How should I clean the plate?
Switch off first, then use a barely damp cloth and dry immediately. Keep abrasive creams, bleach and solvent cleaners away from both the colour and the chrome.
