Review: Great for your smaller electronics as only 5w USB, DIY friendly. - I've put two of these in my daughter's room, two in the main bedroom, and the spare room, plus we have them in the kitchen. It's surprising how much random stuff we have to charge, but those things didn't come with their own plug! Just like a lot of tech nowadays, we can charge all of the motion sensor stair lights, shavers (mine and my wife's), torches, etc., all without needing a plug. They only charge at 5W, but for small things, it's perfectly acceptable. You do not need to be an electrician to install these; you just need common sense. But of course, get a professional to do it if your brain is not DIY-friendly. I found them very easy to install, just like a regular outlet. The switches have a fairly premium feel to them and are really nice quality. So far, after having them installed for about 10 months now, we have not had any issues. Good value for money..
Review: Solid Double Socket That Does Its Job Without Drama - Happy with this double switched socket. It’s well made, feels sturdy, and once installed it just quietly gets on with life — exactly what a wall socket should do. Switches are firm and positive, terminals are solid, and it sits flush on the wall. Looks clean and smart without trying to be fancy. Two small niggles: the wiring space is a bit tight if you’ve got thick cables, and the screws need lining up properly if you care about them being perfectly straight (which, let’s be honest, some of us do). Neither affects how it works. Overall, reliable, decent quality, and does not electrocute you — always a win. I’d buy it again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does this connect to the router?**
A: People here are getting confused. There are two different models here. One of them has a built in Wi-fi extender which extends an existing Wi-fi network from your current router. When installed the blue led flashes and you use your phone to connect to the sockets Wi-fi network called BG. Once connected you use your phone to connect to bg.repeater.net which then guides you through to select your own router network. From there you enter your current Wi-fi network password and then confirm. You also need to make sure the tick box on this page is ticked so the socket also takes on the same network name and password as your current network. All your devices will then connect to this socket when in range and treat it as if it was your current network. The setup is very easy and takes about 2 mins minus the actual installation of the unit to the mains supply.

**Q: Does this extend my existing wifi network OR will it create a second ‘new’ wifi network?**
A: Old question, but this can do BOTH as I discovered when I set mine up earlier. Select the current wifi to grab the signal and then select if you wish to extend with current details or create a new one. No disadvantage to either option.

**Q: Are the usb terminals wired seprately. or does the whole thing just get wired in, as would a standard wall socket without usb terminals?**
A: Wire as a standard socket the USB ports then become "live"

**Q: How easy is it to install this? Is it like a normal wall socket?**
A: Very easy and as normal. Remove the cables from the normal one and fix it to this one.The cables are colour coded so you wouldn't  get it wrong. You can take a photo of your old wiring from the plug so that you can ref to it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good USB socket so far.
*by A***Y on 14 December 2019*

I'm a qualified electrician so please always use a qualified electrician to replace electrical items. This was very simple to swap out with good terminals at the back. These fit easily in a 25mm back box. I have the metal back box so I can't comment on the plastic plasterboard type boxes. The socket swiches feel sturdy at the moment so we will see if they last. As for the USB sockets they are in a reasonable place as some clash with plugs when in other places. This is NOT a FAST CHARGE unit. It is higher current output but not variable voltage or 5A output required for some devices to activate the fast charge in your device. Just be aware if you routinely have your electrics tested by an electrician as you should these will cause the test to fail as they leak a very small amount of current into the earth wire. A good electrician should ask as they have to bypass the socket earthing. But you should make them aware.
