Uh-oh, USB built into a power socket, this'll turn into a heated discussion!

For safety's sake I would rather pay £3 or £4 more to get one of the other two similar models that Screwfix offer. They both confirm to BS 1363-2.

Be careful with these. They're quite noisy and have a loudish whistle when it's charging via USB. I've got a couple in my bedroom and it's annoying. Do yourself a favour and pay a pound or 2 extra for a better quality socket.

These save space, only purchase if it has a British Safety mark far more reliable than a CE (China and Europe :stuck_out_tongue: mark)
I would not use them ever-where and only if you have a new Mini-circuit breaker type fuse box. Not heard of these making sounds but if yours does, STOP using it and get an electrician pronto These save space, only purchase if it has a British Safety mark far more reliable than a CE (China and Europe :stuck_out_tongue: mark)

I picked up a couple the other day then realised they looked a bit cack so will be going back. Counter person informed me this design was the only one they did in White, not true there is another on which look much neater with two separate usb outlets but costs a little more.

I agree. the LAP ones comply at £9.99 each, if you scroll to the bottom of the page they are 2 for £14 at the moment.

bought many LAP sockets and they are decent quality.

PS Yes, they are 'on' all the time; no you can't turn them off!
Someone say that the twin pack has finished now? Shame.
