Good quality

does what you expect
I fitted this by our front door so I could plug in the granny cable for our PHEV and leave it connected. Not that it will make much difference if someone wants it but I fitted a small padlock on it. Quality socket from a reputable brand, works as it should does not get warm even with a constant 10A draw so im happy. If you have a PHEV and don't want to go the full hog of a wall box then this socket is a good option wired up to a fused spur with some good quality 2.5mm.

EV charging solution
If, like me you charge your EV (mine is a 2021 Kia e- Niro - wonderful) then you might have the problem I had. The weatherproof socket plug holes were offset so the thick cable was not allowing the unit to close properly. This unit is not offset so makes it much easier.

Great quality well made product
Great quality as always from this brand, only negative is that the face plate doesn’t have the quick fixing like others they supply.

Does the job
A simple and good value weatherproof socket. Just suited the purpose. The locking mechanism is easy to use and positive, unlike some others that I have had.

Does the job but a bit bulky for me
This took me by surprise when it arrived as it was nearly twice the size of the socket I was replacing. That said, it still fitted OK although I was less happy about the drip hole required in case water found its way into the rear of the case. Surely this should be IP67 or better? Anyway, it's been fitted now for a few weeks, I've used it a few times and it does the job. The price was OK. If I had to buy again I'd consider looking at the size of the comparable units and getting a switched unit as I was uncomfortable unplugging the Karcher without first being able to switch the mains off. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
