As its name implies, the 150-Country Auto-Detecting Travel Adapter And Converter automatically detects incoming voltage and converts it to 120-volt AC power. Moreover, it’s configurable to adapt to the outlets of over 150 countries throughout Europe, Africa, Asia, the Americas and Caribbean, and Australia.
Small enough to fit inside a pocket, but larger enough to beat an intruder with, the device also:
- Has a built-in USB port, allowing you to leave chargers for cell phones, digital cameras, iPods, and other devices at home;
- Allows simultaneous AC and USB connection to charge two devices at once; and,
- Features a surge protector, protecting electronics from potential power spikes.
At $40, the nifty little device is a bargain. Further, if it’s good enough for Tim Leffel, it’s good enough for you.
