Description
Sky blue is a rare colour on a power point, and this one carries it well. The screwless plate sits flat and unbroken, with no fixing screws to break up the front, and chrome rockers and port trim give it a crisp edge. The switched 13A sockets take the usual plugs, and two USB-A ports share 15W between them, enough for a phone and a tablet without either needing a full socket.
We reach for a coloured plate where a room already has some character to work with: a painted kitchen, a child's bedroom, a study with a strong wall colour, or a hallway where white plastic looks like an afterthought. Bedsides are an obvious home for it, since the USB ports mean a charging plug need not live on the floor. It suits anyone who would rather charge straight from the wall than keep a plug adaptor to hand. It is meant for indoor rooms on an ordinary household supply, and the rocker switches let you isolate each side when nothing is in use.
The plate and body are moulded in polycarbonate, a tough plastic that holds its colour and shrugs off everyday handling. Cleaning asks little: switch off, then wipe the plate with a dry or barely damp cloth and dry it straight away, keeping polishes, solvents and cream cleaners away from the chrome. It carries a ten year warranty. Aside from the colour, the proportions are conventional, so it sits comfortably next to plainer plates elsewhere in the room. A single blue plate in a room reads as deliberate, and a run of them along a worktop or either side of a bed reads better still.

Frequently Asked
How much charging power do the USB ports deliver?
The two USB-A ports share 15W, so a single device gets the full amount and charging is a little slower when both are in use.
Are the sockets switched?
Yes. Each side has its own rocker switch, so you can turn a socket off without unplugging.
What are the plate dimensions?
The plate measures 146mm long by 85mm high.
What is it made from, and what are the metal parts?
The plate and body are moulded polycarbonate in sky blue, with chrome-finished rockers and port trim.
Can it be used in a bathroom or outdoors?
No. It is IP20 rated and intended for dry indoor rooms on a domestic supply.
How long is the warranty?
It carries a ten year warranty.
