Review on Tripp Lite Protector INSURANCE SK120USB by Stephen Lunn

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A must have for travelers

I got this to charge my travel router but ended up getting used to a lot more. I travel a lot for work and often find myself in hotel rooms with only one or two outlets available. (It's not the Ritz.) It used to be a real agony to choose between a watch, lamp, laptop, phone charger, or iPad. If you've been charging your camera battery or anything else that's blocking outlets, you've really lost a hose. Tripp Lite 3 has arrived, and boom, problems solved. It takes the top plug and gives you 3 more outlets PLUS 2 USB charging ports. You can easily charge your phone and tablet and leave room for your laptop and anything else you need. You also don't have to worry about blowing the fuse since it has one. (A bit of peace of mind when it turns into a power jellyfish next to your head.) My only downside I can think of is that the plug itself is flip-out (the top two prongs fold into a grounding pin), which leaves me with some concerns about life expectancy. I've been using it for a few years now and haven't had any problems.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • fade away
