Outlets

A power strip is one of the most indispensable items I pack in my suitcases. Here in the Holiday Inn Express in Calgary, there is one (count ‘em: one) AC outlet anywhere near the desk. But I have six because I bring a basic power strip wherever I go. With cell phones, iPods, laptops and a host of other items that need charging, why hotels think one or two outlets is adequate is just beyond me. But with my trusty power strip, it’s no longer a problem.

  1. I hate it when there is a conveniently located plug - only to have it utilized by the alarm clock and the only lamp in the room.

    I thought that I was pretty savvy with my packing, but I’ll now add a power strip to my standard packing list.

  2. Fly Girl, if I have convinced one person to begin packing a power strip, then my work here is done. wink

  3. I went out and bought two power strips yesterday.  One for myself and another for a friend. 

    Your work here is done.  grin
