Digital camera reviews of Monster MP OTG400 BK Outlets To Go 4 Outlet Travel Power Strip (Black)
Digital camera Review: Great Compact Design
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this for a recent 3 week trip. It was one of the best things I brought - I love the fact the cord is not too long and can wrap around itself to stay compact and tidy while not in use. Highly recommended.Digital camera Review: Great Portable Power Strip
Summary: 5 Stars
This power strip is quite compact and easily transported with a laptop. It's great for travel and working in a coffe shop. I'm thinking about carrying a separate extension cord because the built cord is really short, but the smallness is part of its attraction.Digital camera Review: Great Travel Accessory
Summary: 5 Stars
I think this is a great travel accessory. When I travel, I always have that dilemma of the one plug on the desk for my PC but then trying to find that accessible wall plug for my cell phone (this is critical since I use my phone as my alarm). This accessory eliminates this issue. It also has a light on it that ensures that the plug has power so it eliminates the Jim Furyk issue (no power to the plug that caused him to miss an event since his phone is his alarm and it died!). It packs very easily and it is a must have now for me.Digital camera Review: Great at being what it is
Summary: 4 Stars
Keep in mind what this device is not:
* surge protector
* extension cord
* featherweight
* inexpensive
It is however compact, and extremely convient to use. It's easy to toss into a bag (not minding the weight--it's heavier than it looks) and take with me to the airport, coffee shop, or conference, places where power outlets are at a premium. I've received many compliments for being the only one "prepared."
Five stars if I didn't feel as if this was much more expensive than it should be (as is typical with other Monster products).
Digital camera Review: Great for travel
Summary: 5 Stars
When I go on vacation I bring lots of electronic gadgets, and invariably my hotel room has a single available outlet as happened on a recent trip. Not to worry. Using this product in connection with some other things, I soon had plenty of outlets.
I plugged a Belkin Travel Surge Protector into the single hotel room outlet and now had two outlets, which still was not enough. Into one of the outlets on the Belkin I plugged a 6 foot extension cord with three outlets at the end; and into one of those three outlets I plugged the Monster 4 outlet travel plug, which has a very short wire; hence the use of the extension cord. I now had more than enough free outlets plus the benefit of surge protection.
This is compact for travel, lightweight, and the plug neatly folds into one of the outlets. However because the wire for the plug is very short, I use an extension cord so that I can have this product on my hotel desktop instead of on the floor. However that is a matter of personal preference. You can definitely use this product without an extension cord. For travel this is a very handy way to multiply the available outlets.
