Digital camera reviews of Kensington 33117 International All-in-One Travel Plug Adapter
Digital camera Review: An Easy-To-Use Adapter But With Limitations
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one of the most convenient plug adapters I have ever used. I have used it throughout Europe and Africa. It is great that everything is self-contained in one handy unit.
Keep in mind that this does not convert voltages so you have to be plugging in something that can use the voltage supplied. For instance most laptop power supplies can handle 110 volt as well as 220 volt. Check the label before traveling.
A couple of cautions. This adapter is fused and is limited as to how much wattage can be drawn. Good for safety, but don't use a travel iron with it or try to power multiple devices. You'll blow the fuse which I learned the hard way. Also, it is a bit bulky and may not fit in tight spaces. A few times I had to hunt for an outlet that was less restricted.
Overall a good product for supplying low-power devices.
Digital camera Review: Awesome travel adaptor.
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this for a trip to Israel in March of 2010, and am going to be use it again as I return next week. I LOVE this adapter. It is easy to use as there are no interchangeable parts, so there is nothing to lose or leave behind! I have recommended this to every one of my friends who has done overseas traveling, and they have either borrowed mine or bought their own and love it. I have not seen a system that is easier to use. My only complaint is that occasionally it will feel like the plug doesn't sit snugly in the wall, but I have never had a problem with it falling out or not charging because of it. I have sucessfully used this with my 3-prong laptop charger, as my boyfriend has with his, with no problems at all.Digital camera Review: Beats Carrying more than one

I used this plug on my trip to Europe, and let me tell you it really came in handy. Worked in every country i went to(including Hungary) Saves alot of space but it did hang or tilt a little in some sockets, guess it was the way I had it positioned, but it definetly is worth the buy!Digital camera Review: Better Option

I bought this device thinking I would save money over buying multiple plug adapters for Germany and Australia... big mistake. I found that I could buy single plug adapters for each country for just $.99 each.Digital camera Review: CRAP

As someone else stated, WILL NOT WORK WITH 3 PRONGED, GROUNDED PLUGS. How ridiculous. Of course, my laptop's ac adapter has three prongs, like many others, so it will not work with this. Also, when traveling abroad, the trick is to bring a power bar so you can plug in multiple devices at once, where only one travel adapter is needed for the power bar itself. Unfortunately, most all power bars have 3 Prongs, so it won't work with them either.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
