[#11798983]

What i want to do is put a "charging station" in my bookcase. I have a double socket underneath it. I want at least 6 usb sockets plus at least 2 normal sockets. I would prefer to have it semi permanent ie an extension running off the sockets then attached to the wall above the shelf that I want to use for charging although I could make it wired in permanently and flush mount although that would be a fair bit more work. the wall is studwork with lath and plaster

To get enough sockets using normal 2 gang sockets would mean daisy chaining them which is not great

USB charging station that I have seen are somewhat clumsy looking and cannot be wall mounted

Any bright ideas? Anything I am missing here?

Thanks

That will not work - with the flat side to the wall the ports would be tricky to access.

How about those ones that sit flush on desks? I've seen them with 4 ports, could get a couple and build them into the bookcase?
