MK (ELECTRIC) Logic Plus Double Socket (K2745WHI) with Dual USB Charging Ports type A and C, (2-Gang, 13A), white

Always happy with MK sockets - the positioning of the terminals in particular makes them easy to wire without needing long lengths int he back box. Feel sttudy and looks classy. The USB is not as powerful as some but I sometimes use it to power a wireless mic receiver - several makes are a little noisy, the MK just works. There are cheaper but this is a high voltage, high current device permanently attached to the house - I want a reputable make.

So far so good. Rock solid and safe. Great price for the functions and silent in use. The arrangement of the ports is very practical and the design looks smart. The option of USB ports is particularly useful. There good power available to charge an iPad well.

Excellent quality, looks great

I've replaced a few sockets with 2 x USB double sockets from Screwfix in the past. Typically, connectors are moving over to USB-C for some items, so these are a good way to hedge your bets. Ordered 4 and the rocker was broken on one which was disappointing. Amazon returns were straightforward so not too much hassle. They fitted a standard 25mm box on a straightforward ring main, but if you had more wires e.g. from a spur coming in, you might find you need a deeper box as the USB electronics take up a bit more space on the rear. The plastic feels tight and looks like it won't yellow. I did look at the LAP ones from Screwfix, but their more expensive ones were a similar price to these and I've always like MK fittings so that swung my decision. I found the grub screws for the terminals very stiff as they had been set in place with a dab of what looked like red paint. That makes sense as they can often fall out or be missing. However, they were hard to screw down. My recommendation is to screw each one fully down and then back them off before pushing the wires into the terminal. This will make it easier to tighten the screws and get a good connection. You get up to 15W from the USB-C port which is the maximum currently available on the Apple Magsafe wireless charger so they are fine for smartphones and will even do for newer laptops if you're not in a hurry. For instance, the Apple supplied charger for a MacBookAir is 30W so these will do the job if you're prepared to wait or just want a top up while you're working.

Good price for a MK, easy fit and working well. Delivered on time.

Quality product very easy to install.

Nicely made switch, a bit on the expensive side, but easy to fit, especially if you are just swapping out a standard double with this double + USB. That said, please make sure you know what you are doing before attempting to install it, if in any doubt call a qualified electrician to install it for you or a friend/relative that does.

Great Product. Perfect for installation behind TV to provide power and USB devices.
