Here’s My New Favourite Travel Gadgets for 2023

UGREEN Nexode USB C 100W Charger

Three people in a hotel room, with three phones, three laptops, Bluetooth devices, game controllers, headphones, and a plethora of camera and audio equipment too. We need power, and we need a freaking lot of it. At home, it’s fine, our stuff plugs in to the wall. However, when you travel, you often need travel adaptors. Rather than use lots of those, we typically just take a native device or one that we can take a new mains cable for.

The UGREEN Nexode takes a standard figure of 8 power cable, so throwing a US plus in with it is easily done (Taiwan uses the same plugs as the US, so that works great for us). With four USB power outputs, one Type-A and three Type-C this gives us a pretty potent charging hub for high-power devices.

100W Max Fast Charge means we can charge most high-end laptops in around two hours, which is obviously fantastic. Keeping this as a central hub for our workstation, it keeps our phones all charged up while we work, so that everyone is at 100% when we step out the door.

It’s a bit more expensive that some of the stuff on Amazon, but this is a quality product, with impressive support for all the latest super fast charging standards and safety features, making it well worth the investment. Plus, when I don’t travel, it sits on my desktop keeping my phone, headphones, Atom controller and laptop charged.
