Review on πŸ”Œ Twelve South PlugBug Duo: All-in-one MacBook Global Travel Adapter with Dual iPhone/iPad/USB Charger by Stephanie Miller

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great adapter with very stupid problems

I had PugBug World (old version) for my old Macbook. I liked that the new version has two additional USB ports. So I invested some stupid money into the new version without really caring to realize what a great product I already had. Too bad I didn't do proper research. The big problem with the new PlugBug is that the part of the adapter that allows you to switch to different plugs for each region of the world to suit local sockets NO LONGER WORKS FOR THE APPLE CHARGER, and also the Apple plug or the cable does not fit the NEW bug plugin. Now this is a problem if you are in a place where (due to the length and local design, e.g. a table socket) the charger including the PlugBug does not fit in the socket and you use the PlugBug and only you remove Use the charger. With the old one, I would just switch the real plug from PlugPug to the charger and you're good to go. Now you will be served unless you bring a different plug (or several for each region) which defeats the entire purpose of this product! How to change the design so STUPID?
