4.0 out of 5 stars Don't leave home without it!
I travel - 125,000 miles in a year is on a slow year - and I have the challenge of doing it with a 22" rollaboard and a "personal item". But I need power and plugs, plus my smartphone, Kindle, Tablet and various items I travel with have USB-based power charging. This device is a touch larger than I would want, but it has it all - UK monster prongs, Euro-Shuko, US and the...

1.0 out of 5 stars Good idea...poorly executed
As a frequent traveler, I ordered this item as a space- and weight-saving alternative to my trusty converter/adapter set. I received the item and promptly departed on a trip overseas. Thank goodness I took my old set as a back-up. The USB port on this item worked for a total of 1-2 minutes and hasn't worked since. I used it to adapt a european style outlet for my dual...

This review is from: Travelon Worldwide Adapter and USB Charger (Apparel)
As a frequent traveler, I ordered this item as a space- and weight-saving alternative to my trusty converter/adapter set. I received the item and promptly departed on a trip overseas. Thank goodness I took my old set as a back-up. The USB port on this item worked for a total of 1-2 minutes and hasn't worked since. I used it to adapt a european style outlet for my dual voltage laptop charger and after approximately five minutes, it began to hum and emit the odor of melting wires. Finally the fuse blew and I chucked the item in the bin. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't leave home without it!, October 12, 2011
I travel - 125,000 miles in a year is on a slow year - and I have the challenge of doing it with a 22" rollaboard and a "personal item". But I need power and plugs, plus my smartphone, Kindle, Tablet and various items I travel with have USB-based power charging. This device is a touch larger than I would want, but it has it all - UK monster prongs, Euro-Shuko, US and the US blades twist to fit slanted Australian plugs; almost any plug can be plugged into it, and whilst I am using it it separately provides me with USB power as well. (Many adapters out there require you choose between USB and AC voltage, even though they are slightly more compact and "sexy" looking.) Travelon charger - don't leave home without it!

Why not five stars? Clunky design and compromises in what seems to be a slightly flimsy build - though in all honesty, mine has lasted a couple of years without problems. And, if I were traveling with a laptop, I'd leave the power block and take an iGo Juice.

Ingenious design, worked fine out of the box at home, where it really didn't matter. Partway through the European trip for which we bought it, an intermittent connection developed somewhere inside. We improvised a work-around, but don't trust ours much to function as designed.
