Just a quick question - I have a shaver socket in my bathroom (2 pin) that I use solely to plug an electric toothbrush into - is it possible to get an adaptor to enable two appliances into ??
Many thanks

I'm no expert on electrical matters, but....those adaptors are described as "for Schuko and EU plugs".
I think you'll find that they will prove unsuitable for your intended use. (The two pins with UK-supplied shavers and toothbrushes are closer together than those on EU/Schuko plugs).

Thanks G, will look into it.

I found it seems impossible to get shaver adaptors of that sort. The current out of the socket is likely low due to the isolating transformer. In my place I need to keep unplugging and plugging in different items. EU adaptors can be forced in but it tends to screw up the socket and so I don't advise trying it.
