Need help wall-mounting a tablet (sh.itjust.works)

Hey all,

I'm looking to wallmount my Samsung Tab4 tablet but can't seem to find the right components to do it.

I already have an recessed plug for power (see image below) but cannot find anything small enough to plug in and power up my tablet.

I already figured out that I would need to purchase a slim flat micro usb cable to power up the tablet and I plan on 3d printing the wall mount. The only thing that I have not yet been able to find is a usb adapter that is small enough to fit in this recessed area. Anyone have any suggestions?

Look for a recessed outlet box, then add your own outlet that has USB. I found a recessed box on Amazon from a company called Arlington, but I'm sure you could find them locally at a home improvement store near you.
