Halfords 2 WAY 12V Multisocket

Overall Auto Express rating

3.0

Best price: £19.99 | Sockets: 2x12V, 1xUSB, micro USB lead

This Halfords product is ideal if your phone or device has a micro USB socket as it has a charge plug on the end of a 60cm lead. It easily revived our Kindle, plus the 2-Amp USB was good for our iPhone and iPad. As with our winner, it features a collar for 22mm sockets and the fit was good. An impressive package, although it’s difficult to look pastthat high price tag in this company.
