Looking for this in black or silver (UK adapter plug / socket)

You know the basic adapter you plug into a socket to be able to add an additional plug in - the very simple ones, not the extension lead ones? Like the image here or on the link? www.amazon.co.uk/CDL-Micro-Double-Adapter-Socket-white/dp/B00ZD193D6/ref=sr_1_9?keywords=multi+plug+adapter&tag=mumsnetforum-21&ie=UTF8&qid=1545135773&sr=8-9

Well, I'm trying to find one in black or silver (instead of white) and cannot find one on Amazon at all?

Does anyone know where I might be able to find one?

There seem to be plenty of black ones where the adapter is for converting, say, a UK plug / socket to a European etc one, but not the regular UK adapter plug / socket just to be able to plug in an additional item.

Sorry for the dull subject matter

I have never seen one in anything but white. Sorry I can’t help.
What would you need it in those colours for?
Good luck with your search.

I have never seen such an item. They are all white.

No idea but block adaptors are a fire risk and you should ideally use a bar one instead. This is because they don’t always have a separate fuse and the bar ones do.

Thanks.

Reason for wanting this particular (mythical) item is because I have had my socket covers replaced from grubby yellowing white to brushed steel. And have got replacement extension lead thingies with a silver unit and black cable and plug.

There is just one socket where they may be an occasional need to plug in another item and space is time - hence wanting one of those block adapters n just that case.

But it seems maybe they are just made in white...
