    ....your ears must be burning: I just priced something similar in Galway this a.m.: €20 - €24 each. PM me if you want the source (not sure if I can mention on here).

    Not 100% sure on the USB capacity though.

    The downside of them as I see it and mentioned to the client - is that if the USB ports go AWOL, it's an expensive ornament on the wall. Std sockets + (quality) adaptor may be better.

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    Yes, thats what prompted me

    The screwfix ones are unfortunately 2.1amp shared - which means that if you plug in two devices to charge, they'll only get 1.05amps each and take forever to charge. If you read the reviews, they dont seem that reliable either with some only lasting a few months

    I've seen some advertised as 2x1amp which is at least being honest, but not a lot of use..
