Description
The plate is warm grey, a soft mid-tone that reads as neither white nor charcoal, with chrome rockers and a chrome band around the charging ports. Two switched 13A sockets sit side by side, each with its own rocker. Below them a USB-A port and a USB-C port share 15W, which covers a phone, a tablet on standby, headphones or a handheld console, and saves a charging brick from taking up a socket.
We like warm grey where white plastic looks stark: against clay, mushroom and greige paint, on a papered wall, or next to oak and brass in a kitchen. It earns its place at a bedside, where the ports mean a phone charges overnight without a lead trailing off to a plug. We would also fit these behind a desk, at the end of a kitchen worktop, and in a hallway where visitors always need a top-up. Keep it to indoor rooms on an ordinary household supply.
The plate and its surround are moulded polycarbonate, which holds an even colour through the body rather than sitting on top as paint would. There are no screw heads on the face, so the warm grey runs unbroken to the edges. For cleaning, a dry microfibre cloth over the plate and around the rockers is usually enough; where kitchen grease or fingerprints build up, a barely damp cloth followed by an immediate dry buff will lift them, and solvents and cream cleaners should stay well away from the chrome. It carries a ten year warranty. Warm grey is the quiet option in a room where the power points should be the last thing you notice.

Frequently Asked
How much charging power do the USB ports give?
The USB-A and USB-C ports share 15W between them, so a single device draws the full amount and two devices divide it. That is comfortable for phones, earbuds, e-readers and small tablets.
What size is the front plate?
It measures 146mm across and 85mm high, with a projection of 35mm from the wall face.
Is each socket switched on its own?
Yes. Both 13A sockets have their own rocker switch, so you can leave one live and the other off.
Can it go in a bathroom or an outbuilding?
No. It is rated IP20, which means dry indoor rooms only, away from splashes and damp.
What is the plate made from, and what are the chrome parts?
The plate and surround are moulded polycarbonate in warm grey, with chrome rockers and a chrome trim to the USB ports.
How long is the warranty?
It carries a ten year warranty from the manufacturer.
