Targus AC APK01AP World Power Travel Adapter (Black)

I just got it and haven't used it so my rating is based on initial impression and experience might change it. It is a lightweight black beauty with apparent high quality of material and finish. I opened it and parts seemed to fit tight. Boosts my confidence that the plug won't be hanging loose at the outlet and will drop unintendedly as it has happened to cheaper one I bought in past. While its weight is accurate as mentioned the dimension "14.1 x 7.6 x 19.2 cm" is wrong. It is cylinderical with length of 8.5" and diameter of 5".Design is very impressive. It is made in China and sells in the USA for $20 or about Rs 1200 (around now) so we are getting it cheaper in India. Wow, why are TV prices so high in India when in the USA 32" TV are dirt cheap? Well, I am digressing and should stick to this product.A user guide is enclosed and for getting started guide the web address of pdf file is listed. The product mentions that it works in more than 167 countries and contains 3 international plugs. A printed note inside the product states that 'This item is not for use in Japan. Please do not use this item in Japan." Right!

this is one of the best quality universal wall adapter. the modular design is light and have a very secure fit in the wall socket. used it across different continents, and always the fit is very secured like any native type wall charger.highly recommended.

The product is good and durable ... worth the money

I first bought this back in 2014 and have used it on several trips abroad. Now bought one more just to have as a backup around. This has never failed me in any country and the pins work perfectly in every configuration. This is obviously more expensive than the no name Chinese items at less than a fraction of the cost but you get what you pay for. In this case premium quality and a product that long outlives anything else in its segment. Highly recommended!!!

Definitely worth the buck if you are planning a trip abroad. The only thing to keep in mind is that you may forget to pull back the adapter from the power socket after using it with your phone charger for example. This has happened to me once, with a black colored charging port at an airport, on my way back to India. I pulled our my charger after charging my phone, without pulling the adapter along with it. I realized this only after reaching home!

I used the product in Malaysia for my electric kettle and cellphone charger. It fits the the socket very well and you can use it with different combinations to achieve proper connectivity. Unlike the cheaper bulky, rectangular travel plug which never used to fit snugly, this fits perfectly well. The build quality is also excellent. However, it is mentioned in the plug itself that it cannot be used in Japan which, i wonder why? Also, the size of the plug is just right as it will not obstruct any nearby switch. Overall, highly recommended product.

very useful product using it on regular basis while travelling international

Please avoid this if you are planning to travel to UAE (uses type-G). The sockets are of high-quality materials but are so poorly designed that they will not accommodate anything larger than a 1 AMP plug.
