3d printed wall plate for usb charger

This is not a new design of mine, but this is the first time I posted it. I wanted to add a USB charger outlet to my RV. Cutting a clean, neat hole with flat sides is very difficult. So, I designed a single gang plate that would hold a 12V - USB charger. I created this some time ago and I am just posting it now. If you have a 3d printer, you can download it from here:

The first time I did this I used a low voltage single gang mounting bracket because I had room in the wall. This time I dont have the room so I will be using a surface mount box.

The usb charger I am using is from Amazon

You can also use this plate for any device that uses a round hole with flat sides where the diameter of the round part is 28.3 mm and the flat parts are 26.3 mm apart.

I will install it this weekend - pictures of the install when I get it done.
