So i have been rounding up my travel stuff getting ready for my trip this fall and i find the amount of space dedicated to electric support is a bit excessive. So i am looking at my options,
It has been 5 years sense i was in Europe so i suspect some of this is outdated now and thus i am looking for inexpensive options on things that will take up less space
Trip info. about three weeks, and will be in Mainland Europe (Berlin, Rome and Paris) and London
So will need both options.
I have the following Tech
Iphone 13
Apple Watch
Airpods
Ipad
and i am looking at getting a mag safe battery as the phone will be used for both GPS/maps as well as tickets and camera.
I will also bring my electric razor that will need charging at some point i am sure.
I am looking at buying a a foldable charging device that will use one reasonably powerful USB wall charger to charge the Watch Airbuds and phone at once.
The Ipad will need its own cable as would the battery
The Ipad cable will work to charge everything but the watch i say the airport or on the plane.
Right now i have a big wall unit that has adaptors for both outlet types and that you can plug everything into but that is a lot of space used for the chargers and the adaptor unit and what have you and it would be nice yo be able to go smaller.
So if i can find a small wall charger/usb device that can plug into the two different types of outlets i will have back a lot. Add in not taking separate cameras and all that jazz and this will cut back what i am draging around.
I believe the razor just needs an adaptor not a convertor.
Also what is everyones thoughts on those devices that are supposed to stop a signal from being transmitted via a USB cable so that you can charge without worrying about being hacked?
1) Do they actually work?
2) Is it actually needed? The USB charging outlets you see at airports are just built in USB chargers and not connected to any network and would need to be physically replaced in order to be connected to a something that could hack a phone. so i cant really see this as being a worry?
anyways just wondering what you folks think about trying to minimize the peripherals
