If you’re looking for a versatile USB charger, the Nucharger QC31 All-in-one International Travel Charger<\/a> delivers. It provides inputs for one USB Type-C DC5V3A Max port, two USB QC2.0 5V 2.4A Max ports, and one USB QC3.0 5V2.4A 3.6V~12V (18W) port. All four ports can be in use at the same time.<\/p>\n

The compact size makes this charger travel friendly, but, further supporting that, it also comes with four different plug types, which are easy to slide in and out of the secure adapter slot. You get US\/Japan, EU\/Korea, AU\/NZ\/China, and UK\/HK plug adapters, which support outlets in over 150 countries. Similarly, its voltage capacity\u00a0should handle nearly any power standard, with its AC 90-240V 50\/50HZ 0.2A input range.<\/p>\n

I really like this adapter. It’s solidly built and provides a lot of versatility, even if you aren’t taking it on\u00a0an international trip. As for me, mine will be going with me on an upcoming Nordic excursion.<\/p>\n

Pluses<\/strong>:
\n– Well-built
\n– Multiple USB types supported
\n– Great for international travel
\n– Includes a carrying case with clip<\/p>\n

Minuses<\/strong>:
\n– Price is a bit high
\n– Only the US adapter pins retract<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/strong>
\nIf you’re looking for a compact, versatile USB travel adapter, the Nucharger makes for a compelling value proposition.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Nucharger for the review unit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
