I also use the Philips One toothbrush, but that case adds a lot of bulk. I just put a silicone toothbrush cap (from Matador) over the head. That way not only do you get rid of bulk, but you can also store the head separated from the handle, to fit in really small toiletry bags. I am super into one-bag/minimal travel and my toiletry bag is an Evergoods CAP 0.5L - Philips One, small Matador toothpaste tube, a round shampoo bar from Lush that use as body soap in case there's no shower gel where I'm staying, crystal mineral deodorant, disposble Bic razor, foam ear plugs and Victorinox nail clipper. (That small toothpaste tube is also the only liquid I carry through airport security and most times they don't even make me take it out)

try out a GaN travel adapter, it will change your life. You can fast-charge multiple devices at 60-100W. The Epicka one is slow if you plug in anything more than 1 device as the maximum output is only 28W.

My travel power journey... if you want to check out what I'm using now. Same as you, I loved traveling with an international adapter and an extension bank (Anker). I then went with the Kikkerland adapter to save space (since USB was in my extension bank). But recently I've been getting both solutions in a single compact device - the Mogics Super Bagel. Extension cord isn't quite as long, but the compact size is hard to beat. Only about 4 trips with it so far but loving it!

@@denisegrosch2744 It’s a pin adapter for Asia, EU etc as they don’t use the same type of plugs. It’s NOT a voltage converter/transformer! Cell phones are by default made to work in both 110 V (N.A.) and 220 V (EU, Asia). Note that phones can get a bit hot when plugged into 220 volt outlet for charging. As for plugging your hair dryer or other 110 V appliances, you’ll blow them if plugged into 220V. You need either a voltage converter or you need DUAL voltage gadgets available on Amazon and elsewhere. Hope that helps!

However, I found the product video misleading when he states, "it's easy to walk around knowing that personal belongings are safe and secure inside the hotel ... " It can only be used when you're 'in' the room ... so .... ??

I would rather have extra juice than not enough just my two. Cents.

Power strips (or travel plug adapters for that matter) don't convert voltage. The voltage they recieve is the voltage they put out. For the voltage conversion from 110v to 220/230v, one needs a step-up or step-down transformer.
@johnvillalovos
@johnvillalovos Жыл бұрын
@@paraagshah4153 That was not my question and I already know that. My question was is it multi-voltage compatible, meaning can it be plugged into 120 volts and 240 volts. The Travel Power Strip has USB so input voltage capability matters. As someone who blew up a USB phone charger years ago because it was only rated for 120 volts and I plugged it into 220 volts, I want to know if it is multi-voltage compatible so it doesn't get damaged if plugged into 220 volts.

I also went to the Amazon page and posted my response (which for some reason didn't post before) indicating that it appears to NOT be multi-voltage capable. So if it gets plugged into 240 volts most likely the built-in USB charger will get damaged.

Replying to myself (again it seems). This does NOT appear to be multi-voltage compatible. From the product's webpage it says: "USB Input:110-125V~,50/60Hz ". So very likely plugging this into 220/240 volts will destroy the USB charger.
