Perfect size for the small counter space near landline. I trust this surge protector. Triplite is my go-to brand for surge protectors.

I really love having this portable surge protector for travel and daily carry. It's small enough to fit easily into my regular laptop bag. The built in USB ports are convenient for charging small devices, and having 3 grounded plugs have saved the day when I've been working with colleagues near a single outlet. The only thing to be cautious about is using this 3 outlet protector with an overseas outlet converter. It's only intended to plug in to US-style wall outlets.

Perfect size for the counter area where needed. Being used for landline and a kitchen appliance. I have a lot of faith in TrippLite surge protector. My go-to brand.

Perfect for washer & dryer. Single surge protectors require more room if only one electrical outlet available.

Great purchase! This is a handy search protector to protect both my laptop and my keyboard. Compact and easy to use.

Love the update to the USB ports. I had the previous version with lower amperage. One improvement would be some type of 90 degree adapter for the plug or a swivel. I had to plug into a strip at a customer site recently where the outlets were mounted such that the cord extended parallel, which required me to find two empty outlets so I could bend the cord out of the way.

I put this little on on my new TV. We zip tied. It to the mounting bracket. I ordered a second one for my travel bag.

I use the 3-outlet surge protector when I travel and staying in hotels. My only constructive criticism is the shape of the unit. Did you really need to give it a hour-glass shape? it's a waste of space as it takes up more room in already crowded suitcase. Keep up the good work Tripp-Lite

anytime i head out of the house with computer in hand, i take this surge protector with me. You never know what or how dependable the power source is you're using to power your valuable equipment. Simply can't afford to have my equipment get fried out there. And the usb charging ports are a bonus. The joules protection was nearly double the next competition's rating was, and nearly at the same price. no brainer.

Great product for what I needed, just a few outlets and USB for a tabletop stand. The only thing I would prefer is a longer cord or sideways plug.

Finally, a quality surge protector that was designed specifically for travel. It is small enough to stuff into any suitcase or bag. The unique way the plug stores prevents damage to other objects in your suitcase. My primary usage for this device is to protect my sensitive electronics while travelling. Secondarily, I find that many hotels have worn-out outlets and my cords either fall out or do not make good electrical contact. The Protect It allows me to leverage a good outlet for multiple devices. I own many Tripp Lite products and expect this to last forever. In the event of issues, Tripp Lite offers something unique... a Lifetime warranty!

Great small, portable surge protector. Fits nicely into the bag used for carrying the equipment to be plugged in. Cord folds neatly.

Excellent product. This brand has a great reputation. Easy to sign up for my product on the website for the warranty. And I like that unless there is a user error or other outlying issue that any product I have plugged into it that has an issue will be covered up to $25,000.

Use this primarily for travel, like the flat plug. Original one bought 2016 -- still working fine (used daily as an extension in Kid's dorm room.) An interim travel replacement failed in less than a year's usage. Went back to trusty original w/ it's Surge Protector.

Works well.

works great in hotel rooms with limited power plugs Note extra slots for electronics Much better than dragging the surge protector from home in compactness in the overnighter I will have to decide if I really need this with me for use in international travel as space is really at a premium in a carry on.

This is a medium-sized surge protector that I use for travel. It has two USB ports.

I should have read the specs more closely or asked questions about the device. The plug takes up both spaces on a duplex wall outlet because it is fixed in a down position that must be plugged in the top outlet. The cord very cleverly wraps around the device when packed for travel. But, the cord is so short (about 18 inches that the device can’t reach a table top next to the wall when plugged into a wall outlet 15 inches above the floor (common height).

This is of very good quality. Cord is perfect length and the USB ports are an added bonus.

Exactly what a traveler with CPap, iPhone and iPad need while visiting family out of town. My wife and I both got one. Great product protection.

The voltage specification is not provided correctly in the description. If this is a travel adapter it should support multiple voltages / voltage range, which is Not the case.

Exactly what we ordered. Very useful for guests staying at our s1860s BnB

Very disappointed! On my first trip, when I plugged it into the wall, I heard a noise, smelled burning electrics, and the protected light went out. So, I had no surge protection for the entire trip!

After trying to use this charger several times and in several places, we threw it away. It blew the circuits in Italy. So then we thought - whoops, must be only for US electricity. Got back to US and tried it again. Same result. BAM—blew the circuit. Since I had tossed the box, I threw it away. Don’t buy this surge suppressor!!!

I wanted to use the product for international travel. I like the compact size, the short 18" cord and the number of USB and standard plug outlets for handling multiple devices. However, it did not suit my needs as expected. I used it with a power converter. When I plugged it into the power converter, it popped and did not work. I was able to use the power converter alone but it only has one plug outlet limiting the number of devices I can use/charge at one time.

Compact & Awesome
By laneymv
I travel throughout the year and in some airports it's difficult to find an unused power outlet. This allows me to use a power outlet along with two other travelers. The USB outlets are great since I can also charge my iPhone without having to connect it to my laptop. If you travel, this is compact so it doesn't take up the space of a power strip.
Would buy again
