This extension lead is built for safe, dual-device power access—ideal for site cabins, garages, or home setups. The surge protection circuitry shields gear from voltage spikes and lightning surges, while the anti-fire ABS housing adds peace of mind in high-load environments.The 2-meter cable is flexible and long enough to reach awkward sockets without excess slack. It uses standard copper wiring (H05VV-F 3G1.25mm²), which handles heavy-duty loads like kettles, heaters, or chargers with ease. The compact design keeps it tidy and portable.✅ ProsDual socket output—power two devices at onceSurge + anti-thunder protection—guards against spikesFlame-retardant housing—rated to 750°CFlexible 2m cable—ideal for mid-range reachFully certified—CE, UKCA, BS1363/ACompact and lightweight—easy to store or transportBudget-friendly—often under £111⚠️ ConsNo power switch—always live when plugged inIndoor use only—not IP-rated for outdoor exposureNo mounting holes—not ideal for wall fixingBlack finish shows dust—needs regular wipe-downLimited socket count—only two outlets🧍‍♂️ Personal VerdictUsed this in a garage and site cabin—ran a heater and charger with no issues.
