As photographers traveling to various countries, we are constantly faced with a growing array of electronic devices, gadgets and batteries....and a confusing international plug configuration, not to mention different voltage ratings. This device promises to make our life easier.

Hammacher-Schlemmer is offering a 150-Country Auto-Detecting Travel Adapter And Converter. This is a lightweight, compact device that automatically detects incoming voltage, converts it to 120-volt AC power, and provides plug adaptation for over 150 countries throughout Europe, Africa, Asia, the Americas and Caribbean, and Australia. The plug configures to fit a variety of international sockets, and it has a built-in USB port that allows you to leave chargers for cell phones, digital cameras, iPod®s, and other devices at home. The device allows simultaneous AC and USB connection to charge two devices at once. An integral surge protector protects electronics from potential power spikes.

The device is sold for $40. Not bad, eh?
