Product Information

Full details

This Kenable twin gang power outlet is designed for homeowners and renters seeking a convenient way to power and charge multiple devices in one location. Its key benefit is providing both standard 13A UK plug sockets and USB charging ports, allowing simultaneous charging of devices like smartphones and tablets. A caveat to note is that the 3.6A USB output is shared between the two ports, and it requires a specific 30mm back box for installation.
