| Review | Rating | Last Updated | It is good
It is good to travel, but it is not as small and versatile as I thought | 3 | Today | High Quality Clover Leaf Cord Replacement for the Int'l Road Warrior
I have traveled with this kit for over a year in Europe and it was and is a great find. This simply replaces your power cord on most (not all) laptop power supplies (the 110-240v AC adapters with a clover leaf connector) with one with removable power plug tips that work throughhout Europe, North America, most of Asia...
This is the only travel adapter I bring with me when I travel as I then charge my phone from my laptop USB port and I travel light and charged.
The only thing that would change to make this product better would be to add more plug adapters (for S. America, etc...) and a provide a locking mechanism on the power plug adapter as it is sometimes is difficult to unplug because the adapter becomes unplugged from the cord and remains connected to the wall plug. You can just grab the cord and pull to unplug it from the wall, you must grab the plug itself to pull the plug from the wall.
| 5 | Today | Funny, but not "ha-ha" funny
Funny -- of all of the plugs that come with this set, none of them fit the standard outlet in some parts of South America. They had the plug that they used for plugging in ovens and dryers down there, but not the one that you would use in your hotel room without buying an additional adapter.
I can't speak to the usefulness of all of the other attachments, but the pouch took up more space than I would have preferred given that I was trying to pack a laptop and some carry-on items into the same bag.
An easier and cheaper solution is to buy a cord in the country where you are traveling, or stop at a local hardware store to modify your current cord at a cost of $5 or less. | 2 | Today | Good laptop adaptor kit, but make sure it fits your needs before buying
The listing here is pretty poor at describing this kit. So let me do so...
This kit is basically a set of plug adaptors for your laptop power "brick". It comes with a set of four different style plugs, for different countries, that connect to a cable that terminates in a sort-of triangular three hole plug that is pretty much the standard connector for *most* (but not all) modern laptop powerbricks (check your powerbrick before buying, obviously). That is to say, that this three hole (male) plug inserts into a three hole (female) plug insert on your powerbrick.
This kit does not do any sort of voltage transition. It is expected that your powerbrick does any voltage converstions required (and most of them are universal/international, so that's a reasonable assumption).
The four plug types included are:
1) US / Japan
2) UK ("British Standard")
3) Australia
4) France
These plugs can be used in certain other countries, as well, but there are countries where none of the included plugs will work. Check your requirements before buying.
I will note that these are high quality plugs--better made and providing a better socket connection than the typical "all-in-one" set that you find in the stores, and certainly making a better connection than those cockamamie one-adapter-that-works-in-every-socket deals that they sell.
Provided the limitations of this kit are compatible with your requirements, I'd say this is a high quality and recommendable kit and I would recommend it over a more general purpose kit in that case. | 4 | Today | product description
