The one on the left with 12v printed on it is a twin blade 12volt accessory socket.

Left is 12v accessory and the one on the right is for your TV aeriel.

12v socket: Some 12v tv's ( i.e. only work from your car or caravan 12v supply not your house 240v) etc may have had a small 2 pin plug on to plug in here. They're somewhat outdated now. I connected a regular female cigarette extension type plug to mine for car chargers and the like.

These are what were fitted years ago to use anything that required 12 volts. Later years they have fitted cigar lighter sockets instead for 12 volt items. The two blades are different sizes to denote positive and negative so you cannot plug in wrong polarity.

I think some 12v shavers used to have these. Gets rid of that 5 o'clock shadow before you have dinner.

Tip: use it before your husband...it will be sharper!
