Electronic Checklist


 

Before you head out on your next trip, refer to this electronics checklist and never forget a battery or charge again:

Compass Rose Travel Adapter

 

Universal Travel Adapter

 

If you’re traveling to multiple countries in Europe or around the world, for example, you’ll want to bring a universal adapter, which is much easier than taking several different adapters for each country. I think the best travel power adapter is one that works internationally, even if you’re only traveling to one country. You never know when you’ll need it!

A universal travel adapter means you can plug in a variety of different plugs, whether it’s from the U.S., U.K., or other country. You can use it when you’re traveling to a variety of regions around the world. The adapter has labels on it so you know which is for which country or region.

If you’re looking for the best international travel adapter, look no further than the Compass Rose International Travel Adapter! This is a product by Travel Fashion Girl! You can charge 3 devices at once and use it in over 150+ countries. Plus, it’s red so you won’t leave it behind on a white hotel room wall. Buy it here!

Anker PowerCore 13000 Portable Charger

 

Portable Charger

 

 

I use the Pebble Explorer which gives my battery guzzling Samsung Note almost two full charges. There are cheaper options like the popular Anker shown above. Don’t forget to give it a test before you go so you know how many charges your device can get.
