Mscien 2-way extension lead with 1.5m cable 🔌
Product description
This compact 2-gang extension lead lets you expand a single UK wall outlet into two independently switched sockets, making it easier to control power to devices on a desk or in a small living area. It includes individual switches with indicator lamps and a 1.5 m pure copper cable, which helps keep cables tidy while giving enough reach for nearby equipment.
Key Points
The two independent switches let you turn each socket on or off without unplugging devices, saving energy and reducing wear on plugs. Each switch has an indicator lamp so you can see at a glance which outlet is live. The strip can be mounted to a wall or fixed to a desk with the screw fixation points at both ends, which keeps the unit secure and out of the way.
Safety features are prominent. The unit uses a standard UK plug fitted with a 13A fuse and meets BS1363/A criteria according to the manufacturer. There is a child-protective safety shutter to reduce the risk of accidental contact, and the casing is made from material rated to resist ignition at 750°C. For everyday use these protections may provide greater peace of mind, although you should consider the total load limit for power-hungry appliances.

Usage Recommendations
Plug the extension lead into a standard UK outlet and mount it where the cable runs least interfere with movement. Use the independent switches to cut power to chargers or peripherals when they are not needed, which can reduce standby consumption. For higher power appliances check the combined draw and note that the total rated power is 2500 W according to the manufacturer, so avoid connecting multiple high-draw devices at the same time to prevent overload 🔌. The screw-fixings allow a tidy installation against a wall or under a desk, helping maintain an organised workspace 📎. If children have access to the area the safety shutter is an added precaution, but supervision remains important.
