One socket to charge them ALL! £20 plug cover comes with built-in USB ports


If you’re running out of sockets for all your gadgets, there is now a simple solution.
Midlands-based Group Gear is selling a power plate complete with two UK 3-pin sockets, as well as two built-in USB ports. 
The £20 device fits any backbox, up to a depth of 35mm, and is fitted by unscrewing the existing socket and replacing it with the new plate.

THE NEW TYPE-C USB CONNECTOR


Last month, images created by Taiwanese manufacturer Foxconn, revealed how a new USB Type-C connector is expected to look when it launches later this year.
It has been designed for use with thinner, sleeker devices, such as tablets and ultrabooks, and solves the annoying problem of inserting drives the wrong way up.
Users of older devices will need an adapter to use the new Type-C plugs.
Many gadgets, from phones to tablets and cameras, feature a micro-USB to USB cable that either plugs into a laptop port, or connects to a 3-pin plug.
 
Other devices feature a proprietary connector, including Apple's Lightning range, connected to a USB.
This plate lets people charge four of these devices at the same time.
And because the USB ports are limited to 2 Amps, only the required power is delivered to the individual gadgets.
If the current exceeds this, it automatically trips off to protect the products.
The 3-pin sockets have an output of 13A, 250V AC.

‘Fed up of running out of sockets? You need the revolutionary solution for USB charging’, explained Group Gear.
‘The two USB ports [allow] you to free up your UK mains sockets for use with other appliances. An easy swap and you’re set-up for fast USB charging.’
