Traveling abroad? Snag this compact, modular adapter that works in any country
TL;DR: Plug in all over the world with the nomadplug World Traveler Adapter, on sale for $49.99 — 9% off its list price — as of Sept. 23.
If you’ve never traveled internationally, you might be surprised to learn that electrical outlets look a bit different in other countries. The U.S. typically sticks with the Type A outlet, which features two pins and is not grounded, or Type B outlet, which features three pins and is grounded. But these are hardly the only types of outlets out there. If you have a work trip, vacation, or lengthy study abroad coming up, you might want to invest in an adapter before you head out. And when it comes to travel adapters, there’s nothing better than the nomadplug.
Essentially a skeleton key to charging your devices anywhere in the world, the nomadplug is a must-have for avid travelers. It’s made up of just four interlocking, magnetic modules, yet is able to work in all 195 countries in the world. All you have to do is pop off the magnetic pieces and place them in the correct configuration for charging. That's pretty much it.
Since it stands just about the height of a coffee mug, it will only take up a few inches in your suitcase. So, you can simply leave it in your bag until your next trip to make your life easier. Ditch the drawer full of tangled-up adapters and switch to this single, streamlined solution.
Because it cuts down on suitcase clutter, keeps you from having to purchase a handful of different chargers, and is extremely convenient for travel, the nomadplug already has some accolades under its belt — including the 2021 International Business Times Best Product and CES Innovation Honoree. Handy if you go on foreign vacations and practically essential if you’re a world traveler, it’s truly designed to meet your every charging need. It’s even equipped with fast-charging capabilities for your iPhone, iPad, Android, or even laptop, depending on the model.
Before you head out on your next trip, be sure to grab yourself a nomadplug. It's on sale for just $49.99 (regularly $55) for a limited time in arctic blue or tangerine.
