Cheapest I can find online.Dual UK power sockets and USB Charging Plate allows you to charge/power 2 x USB devices, as well as supply power to 2 normal household appliances.
The USB charging sockets are compatible with items such as Smartphones, Music Players, Cameras, Tablets and other devices that require charging via a USB port.
The USB charging sockets are limited at 2 Amps for both ports, with intelligent current control which allows up to 2A on one port only. If the current exceeds this it will automatically trip off to protect your device.
The wallplate also features 2 switchable UK 3 pin power sockets and will fit any standard back box (minimum depth of 25mm).

Are these available from any reputable brand/seller with 2 x 2.1A outputs (ie 2.1A each, not 2.1A combined)?

But yeah I guess like dmm says they could be lying. Would hope CPC farnell wouldn't stock outright cons though, they're usually pretty good!
Those are 10mm deeper. Make sure you have deep enough box.

I have a pair of these, they do output their rated charge but you do need to use a good USB cable with it.

I was put off these by comments on amazon saying the usb output was close to useless for charging anything, I love to know the actual output because they'd be very handy

2.1 amps, it's in the title? :smiley: All USB (aside from Qualcomm QC) is 5v.
Not sure how useful long term these will be though, what with the advent of USB C and it's laptop level voltage/amperage....

just be careful - in real world use - some of these don't even output near HALF the amps given -(screwfix for example) I don't know about this one .
In my opinion after actual usage with Raspberry Pi 2 (which needs 2.,1 Amp) - these are by FAR the best ..... 7dayshop power socket with USB
