{"product_id":"2-gang-double-13a-15w-usb-a-socket-cool-grey","title":"2 Gang Double 13A 15W USB-A Socket - Cool Grey","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eA double switched socket with two USB-A charging ports on the same plate, so a phone and a tablet can top up while both 13A openings stay free for lamps, laptops and the kettle. The front is a flat screwless plate in cool grey, unbroken across its face, with chrome rockers and chrome-ringed pin apertures picking out a little brightness against the soft grey. The USB pair shares 15W, which covers steady overnight charging for a handset or a reader.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe put this where chargers otherwise live permanently plugged in: bedsides, home desks, kitchen worktops, the shelf by the hall where keys and phones land. Each half of the socket has its own rocker, so you can switch off a charger or an appliance without pulling the plug, and the USB ports mean fewer plug-in adaptors cluttering the wall. It suits busy family rooms and small flats where power points are in short supply, and it works well in a scheme with grey or graphite paintwork, where a white plate would jump out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate and body are moulded ABS, a hard-wearing plastic that keeps its colour and does not mark easily around a well-used charging point. Keep it looking right by wiping the face with a barely damp cloth and drying it off; skip solvents and cream cleaners, which dull the moulding and can craze the chrome trim. It is intended for dry indoor rooms on a household supply, and it carries a ten year warranty. The screwless grey plate pairs happily with brushed chrome or nickel ironmongery, and we would run the same plate style through the switches and sockets in a room so the walls read as one set rather than a mixture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCool Grey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSecond Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType of Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.21KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e146mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e85mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack Box Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolycarbonate, Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax.
