I am (or rather a customer is) after something like this

http://www.maplin.co.uk/13a-wall-soc...-in-usb-340875

but with a double socket.

Or a stand alone hard wired USB mains powered USB point will do.

Suggestions welcome if you have used one.



Don't fit one, you cant turn them off so they waste power all the time.


I understand that they only switch on when a USB plug is inserted.

De-rate the cable depending on how well the socket and back box is
insulated and how much power the PSU uses both when idle and in use. They
do provide the technical data required to check this?
