APC Universal Plug Adapter

As many of you know, I love to travel. Cool Tools has a post about the APC Universal Plug Adapter, something I'll strongly consider purchasing before my next trip overseas:

If you've ever traveled to Europe, you've taken or bought a plug converter. If you've traveled much at all, you've probably purchased a set of these things in a lovely (and huge) travel case. Equally likely is that you've either forgotten one or two or lost them somewhere along the road, forcing you to purchase spares that don't fit in the original case.

For this reason, I got tired of a bag of random adapters and went looking for a universal one. I found two or three of them and they all had one thing in common; they were the size of a baseball (I'm obsessive about size and weight when I travel). So when I stumbled across this adapter by APC, I fell in love. It's small (1x2x4 inches), it's packable, it has all the adapters I need, and it works. If you travel overseas and you're sick of a computer bag that weighs more than your luggage, you have to have this.

This looks like a sweet device worthy of throwing in any carry-on bag. It's lightweight, compact, and looks like you can use it just about anywhere. Check out these pictures of it. It looks like it changes shape almost like a Transformer.

You can pick one up at Amazon for less than $16.
