What travel plug adapter do you use?
« on: May 16, 2024, 08:24:43 PM »
I currently looking for South Africa, Europe and UK. Trying to decide should I go with separate plugs or an all-in-one.
What do you currently use? Any brand suggestions?

The separates are way better. The all in ones easily fall out of the wall, aren’t firm.

  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Tumi. It is excellent. I got it free in a swag bag from a law firm. The updated one looks even nicer, but it's very pricey.

Just using it for electronics and it looks like they are all 110/220 so don't need the power conversion.
Going to need more than one of each. Some of the three packs look pretty reasonable.

This is for one trip or separate trips?

Get some three packs and stash some in different places. No way you don't lose a few on the road.

It looks like it doesn't have M plug for South Africa.

This seems like the best option especially for the price.

I'd say unless your traveling a lot go for whatever is cheaper, your probably want more then one.
