Targus World Power Travel Adapters, Black (APK01US)

Bought this for a round-the-world backpacking trip where we need to convert Australian plugs to those in various international destinations. This is compact, fits Australian (and other) plugs for input, and appears to be robust and good quality. This was expensive in comparison with other similar ones, but it appears to be value for money.

I just got it and haven't used it so my rating is based on initial impression and experience might change it. It is a lightweight black beauty with apparent high quality of material and finish. I opened it and parts seemed to fit tight. Boosts my confidence that the plug won't be hanging loose at the outlet and will drop unintendedly as it has happened to cheaper one I bought in past. While its weight is accurate as mentioned the dimension "14.1 x 7.6 x 19.2 cm" is wrong. It is cylinderical with length of 8.5" and diameter of 5".Design is very impressive. It is made in China and sells in the USA for $20 or about Rs 1200 (around now) so we are getting it cheaper in India. Wow, why are TV prices so high in India when in the USA 32" TV are dirt cheap? Well, I am digressing and should stick to this product.A user guide is enclosed and for getting started guide the web address of pdf file is listed. The product mentions that it works in more than 167 countries and contains 3 international plugs. A printed note inside the product states that 'This item is not for use in Japan. Please do not use this item in Japan." Right!

I have used with no problems for years. I have since purchased another one. Small in size and lightweight, which makes for easy packing.

very useful product using it on regular basis while travelling international

this is one of the best quality universal wall adapter. the modular design is light and have a very secure fit in the wall socket. used it across different continents, and always the fit is very secured like any native type wall charger.highly recommended.
