An electrical extension lead, comprising an electrical cable (8) having a first end (26) connected to a plug socket arrangement (12) for supplying electricity to electrical devices, and a second end connected to an electrical plug (34) for connection to an electrical mains supply. A battery pack charging assembly (15) is also connected to the first end of the cable and a battery pack for use with an electrical device is removably connectable to the battery pack charging assembly for charging. The plug socket arrangement (12) and the battery pack charging assembly (15) are mounted within a common housing (2a, 2b, 4). The cable (8) is stored by wrapping it around the exterior surface of a hollow storage structure (4) and the battery pack charging assembly (15) is located within said hollow storage structure. The storage structure (4) may be rotatably mounted within an outer housing (2a, 2b), which outer housing is formed with a hole (32) through which the cable (8) is extendable.
