    I think like most people we want the socket for our toothbrushes so shutting the cabinet door whilst charging isn't an issue. I guess I could just buy a cheap cabinet then I wouldn't mind drilling holes in it but it would take a lot of room inside. I do want an integral light too though.

    A normal socket doesn't take up any more room than the triangular one I was first looking for, they both are surface mounted. I have slimline wall units, they are only 160mm deep, taking up too much space isn't a problem imo.

    You can still have a light, but wired separately to the socket.
