I've seen some with a hook up plug and a normal 13a socket in similar configuration to a splitter but cant find them now.
They save having a fitted external socket.

you are making an assumption.. :RollEyes:

I DID look .. all of them.. but it didn't explain why anyone would want a two pin plug with an adapter cable when you can easily fit a weather proof 13a socket outside or in a locker..

until the OP said... IT SAVES FITTING A THREE PIN SOCKET ON SIDE OF VAN,AS I AM A SKINFLINT.


it was to save money ..

[HI] it was to save money .[/HI].

save even more money.....just plug the extension lead into a socket in the van. :Doh:

The window will still close and lock with the lead hanging out.

I was wondering why no UK version with 3 pins ?
Because it dont look to safe or waterproof maybe:whatthe:

Just a thought
I once got a shock from damp/wet wallpaper after tucking a flap behind a live light switch whilst decorating, making the wall itself live
could this happen to the wet walls of a van ??? wet sockets and wet fibre glass ??
I realise not too many vans are wallpapered outside

It is protected by the RCBO at the hook up point. It will trip before it kills you :roflmto:
If in doubt give your finger a lick before taking a dab at it
