text: This is a great item to bring when you travel. We travel on motorcycles and this is very small and easy to pack. Many hotels still do not have USB ports, so this comes in handy, just plug in the power strip and plug in your USB cords. The one minor issue is the electric plugs on the power strip are for european plugs. Good if you are traveling internationally, but would like to see one with US plugs for extra power when we travel too.
