Indeed. Just bought one to put behind my bed to turn the bedside table lamps on for me.

No idea, they were cheap and fix my problem in the short term. Apparently these ones are semi decent, they have copied the design of the rain sports, which I think are fantastic for the money.

Sounds good! The MG crowd insist there are only two suitable options as the car is very sensitive to tyre choice. Toyo Proxes, or Falken ZE310.
I am hoping not to have to buy either anytime soon

I ordered two of these on Tuesday. I had a dispatch email saying seven had been sent.
Four turned up on Wednesday.
Another four turned up yesterday.
I contacted the company and they said that they've only sent me two so I had no qualms in setting them up. I've got them in Apple Home, in the Tapo app and now need to drag them into Home Assistant.
Who'd you buy them from?
Just had a look myself and they look really good tbh. Up to 13a but they don't specify whether that's perfect strip or per socket. Very likely per socket but as I'd be plugging in an electric fire I'd need to be sure.
Does it say anything in the manual per chance?
Each socket can do 13a but the strip overall is limited to 13a.
I would imagine the plug on the extension lead is fused at 13A, you shouldn't try drawing 52A from a ring main/radial that is likely rated at 32A...
Excellent, thanks. I'll order a couple then, be perfect for a few bits we have.
*Shouldn't*

You're overlooking the fact that feek has multiple. If you plug one into another you get 13amp X4 sockets multiplied by 2 = 104amp possible.
Electricians don't want you to know this trick as big radial keep spewing their propaganda.
It's Saturday, but you only get 3 sockets, as one is taken for the daisy chain, right?
But yes, as an example I have a radial running on a 20A RCBO for my utility room (appliances are on their own radial in kitchen and utility) and everything else is pretty much 32A so yeah you definitely don't want to be drawing silly amounts. I'm going to go and watch that video!
I should tidy the kitchen and post a pic here as that has been my 30k expense that is nearing completion (RIP the two cars in my sig to pay for it)

Sorry I missed the punch line in what was attempting to be a funny post
