If you ever need to charge multiple devices on the go, a multi-socket adapter is always the real solution for you. For the best option available right now, see our list of 5 best 12-volt multi-socket adapters:
1. Carpoint 2-Way Socket:
This is really a power plug that leads to two individual 12-volt sockets at the end of 20cm wires. It comes with a dope design that makes it possible to place devices on either side of the centre console while they’re charging. However, you’ll not be getting 22mm adapter for the power plug with this one.
2. Ring RMS13:
This one sits snugly in most cup holders, which means that it stays on a spot, in a comfortable location, without stressing you to secure yourself.

You’ll appreciate its self-coiling 1m power lead which stops the cable from being super untidy. Alongside 2 12v sockets, it also comes with 2 USB outputs: a Type A socket and a neat Micro-USB plug on a 60cm retractable lead.
3. Ring RMS10:
Still on the topic of best 12-volt multi-socket adapters. This one and the option directly above are quite similar, the only difference is that the RMS10 has two USB Type-A sockets, instead of the other model’s retractable Micro-USB plug. Its two-socket approach is also very useful nowadays since the Micro-USB approach is quickly fading away.

More Information On Gadgets:
A gadget is a small tool such as a machine that has a particular function, but is often thought of as a novelty. Gadgets are sometimes referred to as gizmos.
In the software industry, “Gadget” refers to computer programs that provide services without needing an independent application to be launched for each one, but instead run in an environment that manages multiple gadgets. There are several implementations based on existing software development techniques, like JavaScript, form input, and various image formats.
The earliest documented use of the term gadget in context of software engineering was in 1985 by the developers of AmigaOS, the operating system of the Amiga computers (intuition.library and also later gadtools.library).
It denotes what other technological traditions call GUI widget—a control element in graphical user interface. This naming convention remains in continuing use (as of 2008) since then.
It is not known whether other software companies are explicitly drawing on that inspiration when featuring the word in names of their technologies or simply referring to the generic meaning.
The word widget is older in this context. In the movie “Back to School” from 1986 by Alan Metter, there is a scene where an economics professor Dr. Barbay, wants to start for educational purposes a fictional company that produces “widgets: It’s a fictional product.”
