Charge it up
Juggling all of your chargers and their corresponding cords can’t be a real hassle in any situation, but when you’re traveling, you don’t always have access to the outlet you desperately need. With the Mobile Power Charger, that’s a non-issue as this handy stick provides a full charge for your phone or other USB-friendly device. It has three different “tips” that enable it to charge iPhones, iPads, most other smartphones and other devices powered via micro or mini USB inputs.
A pen for every need
Stylus’ are commonly used to tap tablet screens and help the user avoid getting fingerprint smudges all over their screens, but this 3-in-1 Tablet Pen goes the extra mile by not only acting as a stylus, but also as a laser pointer and an actual pen. The pen portion of the stylus, a fine-tip ballpoint pen with black ink, is hidden inside of the stylus, while the laser pointer is button activated.
Presentations on-the-go
Traveling for work can be a lot of, well, work, especially if you have to lug around equipment for a presentation. And it only gets worse if you have to travel during a holiday weekend. Luckily, this handy pocket projector provides the power of a full-size, HD projector while taking up much less space. It can display up to a 60” vertical screen and projects in 1080p and 1080i video input. The LED lamp in the projector offers up to 85 lumens of power for up to 2 hours of use on a single charge. It connects via HDMI adapter to most any smartphone, tablet, computer or video camera.
Traveling Keyboard
If you’re looking to save space in your suitcase by not packing your laptop but you hate tapping away on your iPad screen, try out this Bluetooth Keyboard Pro. It connects wirelessly to your iPad via Bluetooth, and offers a full-size QWERTY keyboard so you can go visit the family without neglecting your computing needs for four days. It even comes with a leather case that makes for a stylish travel accessory.
