I have bought a new TV which needs to connect to a freeview recorder. The freeview recorder does not have an HDMI socket, so i got a lead with HDMI on one end and a scart on the other. It works.

However, part of this HDMI - scart lead has a 2nd part which needs to connect to a usb power point.

I used a standard mobile phone plug,is this safe to leave turned on all the time rather than have to constantly switch the freeview recorder off. Or would i be better getting one of the above on.Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/ameego®-Charger-Adapter-Compatible-Samsung/dp/B00L9SZIPO/ref=asc_df_B00L9SZIPO/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309924738384&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4666383884098340816&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9046774&hvtargid=pla-562964372350&psc=1
 
Thank you Jason. Its at my girlfriends, I'll have a look and get back to you. The plug being used is a spare fast charge branded samsung as she had a spare one from her mobile or tablet, plugged into a multi socket which also has TV, Freevier recorder and Blue Ray player plugged into it. There is no other wall socket within reach to seperate them. I did however, think of this, would this do the job and be safe ?

I got this, and replugged everything, it seems fine and I'm a lot happier now, thanks for the advice Jason.
