BESTEK Universal Travel Adapter 100-220V to 110V Voltage Converter 250W with 6A 4-Port USB Charging 3 AC Sockets and EU/UK/AU/US/India Worldwide Plug Adapter (White)

I am planning on visiting Malaysia for a month. I knew that I would need an adapter to charge multiple items that I will be taking with me. I will be taking standard use items: iPhone, iPad, wireless headphones, rechargeable batteries, GoPro, and so on. In traveling in the past I found that I needed to charge multiple devices at once, traveling in the states I carry a multiple USB charging adapter. Since outlets are not always close to where you want to use the device I like the idea of a multi plug outlet as well as multiple USB outlets for charging with an extension cord built in.The device arrived quickly through Prime and was well packaged. The device is a three outlet power strip with 4 USB outlets on the side. Two USB outlets are labeled at 2.4 amps and two at 1 amp. Especially with larger devices like iPads, the 2.4 amp outlets should increase the speed at which they charge. The end power cord ends in a two prong plug in made for what looks like Europe. Included are three additional outlets for US and other world standards. The power cord plugs and unplugs into the main power strip unit. For a device that would sit under my desk for months or years this would be unnecessary. As a device that will be packed and unpacked on a regular basis I appreciate that the cord unplugs for packing and eliminates trying to put extreme bends in the cable where it connects to the device.I have been using the power strip at home before my trip and give initial observations. After the trip I will provide feedback on use internationally.Upon unpacking the unit feels solid and well made. Connecting the US two prong adapter was a simple process of pushing the adapter over the two prongs on the cord. Witht he device plugged in and sitting on a side table I noticed that it is solid and did not slide on the rubber feet on the base of the unit. There is a switch to turn the unit on and off. A few seconds after turning the unit on there was a slight hum, kind of like the fan in a computer tower. I am not a fan of extra noise, especially from a device that may be on all night while I am trying to sleep in a new place. I assume that it is needed for the circuitry since this will act as a transformer for potentially 240 volts in some countries for three outlets and 4 USB outlets. I have been using the charger in the living room in the evening while watching TV to charge my iPad, iPhone and other devices at times. So far it has been consistent in charging my devices with no faults or issues. Other than the low hum, it has been very nice having four USB charging outlets as I use my computer, pads and phone in the evening.The overall package is a little bit larger than I would normally like to include in my normal kit, although acceptable if I can consistently charge all of my devices internationally while I travel. I plan on packing it in my checked baggage and carry a smaller adapter in my carry on.Pro'sMultiple outletsMultiple USB outletsExtension cordOutlets snugSolidl buildConsLarger than I usually travel withHas a fan like hum when on

Just got back from a trip to Israel. Used the unit in Jordan and Israel, with no issues at all. It does have a soft hum sound when on. But I quickly didn't even notice it. No complaints!!

I live outside the U.S. in an Asian Country that uses 240V power in the homes, rather than 110V. So I cannot plug my many American purchased computers, shredders, air purifiers, etc. directly into the outlets or they will blow up. So I have purchased at least 4-5 of these Bestek Universal Voltage Converters over the past two years and they work great! They are high quality and very effective and reliable. They have 3 outlets each and 4 USB plug-ins on the side for cell phone and other USB charging requirements. The kits also come with many outlet converter types, and sometimes a traveling case. Whenever I travel I also take one with me for my computer. They make variations for Europe, Asia, and possibly other locations, so you have to order the correct unit for you, and you must know the type of outlets and plugs they use in the country you are traveling to. Some of my Bestek units have been powered on 24-hours a day 7-days a week for years. No failures or problems. Great for traveling, throw one in your backpack or travel case. I use these units in my office, bedroom, living room, and kitchen (for US purchased appliances). No problems. I highly recommend them, but do your research first to get the correct unit for you. I only wish they had 4 outlet plugs rather than 3. It is possible they make 4 plug units but I have not seen one yet on Amazon. However, three would be enough for most people.

This worked great on my trip to Europe. It allowed me to charge several items at once. It wa the correct voltage too. That is one thing to check as you bring US items to plug in such as your straightener and chargers.

A really great product. I used it throughout Europe and was in good shape everywhere we went. This is a gift for one of my adult children who is travelling with us in Europe. M

First time overseas for work and I asked my co-workers who have been on previous assignments, what they use. BESTEK was the most common 'go-to'. Before my order was delivered someone else's either took a voltage spike from the outlet (EU's 220V), or there was a internal malfunction. Ready to be thrown out, I asked if I could disassemble to see where/what was the point of failure.Once apart, the component on the circuit board that looked like it caught on fire (a 'capacitor/voltage regulator' closest resemblance I could find online) was obviously the cause of this converters demise.The unexpected surprise: the guage size of the wires coming from the 'power input' into the circuit board, and from the board, 'daisy chained' to the outlet ports on the face of this BESTEK. The wires carrying the prime voltage were the size that powered my RC Car from when I was a kid.Knowing what's inside powering my devices, I am cautious with what/how much draw the device takes when I plug it into my BESTEK. For $35, you get what you pay for.It works perfectly/as intended and non of my devices are waning, or not getting sufficient power to charge/operate.As a precaution, I invested in:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CJC8LPDH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1It wont get here for ~2 weeks. Id rather pay a little extra now, than see my Thinkpad or any of my other devices get varying power delivery if I try to 'pull' from all three outlets.If you don't think about the grade of its internals. BESTEK is a good buy for your buck.

Bigger than I wanted, but totally worth it. In every country worked without a problem
