If you’re tired of taking up socket space with USB AC adapters, then we’ve got just the thing for you. The Masterplug is a surge-protected 1A USB and mains charger that’ll allow you to reclaim your socket space.
Just plug into any UK outlet to gain two USB ports, each capable of supplying 1A of charge, and still retain use of that socket for anything else you’d like to plug in there.
With 1A of charge at your disposal, you’ll be able to charge smartphones, MP3 players and e-readers at full speed; most tablets will charge more slowly. That means the Masterplug is ideal as a Kindle charger or iPhone 5 charger, and it’ll work with loads more devices too.
The Masterplug is a simple idea well executed. The USB plugs are easily accessible at the top of the device, allowing you to plug and unplug without fumbling. On the front of the device, you’ve got the pass-through electrical socket as normal. This is augmented with two LED indicators, which let you know when the power is connected and when surge protection is active. This surge protection will serve invaluable in the case of a power surge, ensuring any computer equipment connected won’t suffer electrical damage.
At 7.5 by 6.1 by 3.6 centimetres, the Masterplug is small enough to fit easily onto your outlet and come with you when travelling. Instead of needing to bring two USB AC adapters and find two extra outlets, you’ll be able to carry just the Masterplug and need only one socket to power up to three devices – two on USB, one on the mains.
