Travel veterans know how frustrating it can be to check into a hotel in a new country only to find your phone isn’t made to plug into the outlets. There’s no way to charge and you find yourself having to rush to the store to buy an adapter.

 

Tumi solved this problem with their Electric Adapter for travelers. The device is equipped with four different plug configurations that’ll adapt to more than 150 countries. No more having to purchase separate adapters for each continent you visit.

 

It’s compatible with most smartphones, tablets, cameras, GPSs and speakers, among other things. Best of all, it’s not too bulky to carry around. The Electric Adapter weighs only half a pound! The dimensions are just as great; it clocks in at only 2.75 inches tall and 2.25 inches wide. That’s small enough to fit into your laptop bag or the outside pocket on your backpack.

 

It also comes with its own case so you don’t have to worry about it getting damaged on the go. While there have been a few complaints about compatibility issues in Germany, it seems to work well everywhere it goes.

 

The Electric Adapter by Tumi currently retails on Amazon for $75.
