Reviews
Socket Converter 1 Gang to 2 Gang is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 168.
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Don't buy Major design fault. Wiring it is fine, but fitting to the back-box is an absolute pain. The screws waggle about behind the socket to about 30 degrees. If you manage to get one side in and miss with the other screw, there's no way of getting it out again without taking both screws out and starting again. Gave up after over 30 minutes of trying and took it back for a refund. Also, slightly worrying, the instructions refer to red & black cables which went out 15 years ago!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not the best When converting a skirting board socket how do you tighten the screws from the under side. I have a few of the old makes. Will be taking back for a refund tomorrow.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good for the price. Have used the clipsal version for many years with no complaints, these are very similar but could be improved. The terminals are a fraction too small considering most single sockets, requiring upgrading, will be in older homes where the cables will be multistrand and two of these are a tight fit. Another niggle is the switch is too close to the holes so some plug adapters, or plug-in chargers, foul the switch. Otherwise, perfectly good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from From little socket big power grows Visually self explanatory and a great way of increasing our new age needs for power everywhere. Might be useful to show + - and Earth on the topside rather than the underside to avoid confusion or miss-connection for a newbie but a very well made and good converter .It would be even better if it came in satin chrome and bright chrome , but hey ho 5*****

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Socket converter I have used these before and I am very impressed with the way of connecting. It makes life a lot easier and fits over existing socket perfectly. Would certainly use again

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Simple idea works wonders I bought two of these to fix to my existing double socket patresses and I am impressed by the speed and ease of installation and the functionality that these units now make to my family.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy fitment. Easy to fit. All the connections in the correct places for the wires to be fitted, no stretching of the cables when fitting.
