One of the biggest struggles for jet-setter is managing to charge their devices abroad.

I’m charging my devices abroad right now!

Apologies to @Papasan

Note that the “safe and secure auto switch” likely only applies to the USB ports. It’s not marketed as having any step up/step down capability. The AC receptacles are going to pass through whatever the line voltage is. Make sure whatever you plug into it supports 100-240V. Don’t assume; you could be making an expensive mistake.

Instead of spending $40, I would spend $2 on the plug adapter for the country you are going to, and bring along one of the many, many USB chargers laying in the kitchen drawer. No ?
