TNShadyLady Posted September 21, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Some upgraded ships have USB outlets for charging electronics. Does anyone know if the Valor has them? Sailing next weekend and I have a plug-in adapter but it includes surge protector which I know is a no-no. Also sailing on Sunshine next March... does it have the USB outlets?

Rare jimbo5544 Posted September 21, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I believe the only ship that has a USB is Vista (I know the Vista does). Sent from my iPhone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocolate melting cake Posted September 21, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I believe it is just on the Vista right now (picture below). It will also be on Horizon. I think they'd have to rewire the ship to put it in existing rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tef43 Posted September 21, 2016 #6 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Adapters are very inexpensive Agreed. You can get a decent wall charger with USB ports for under $20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckeyeCruiseGuy Posted September 21, 2016 #7 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I always take this when I travel. Just about all my electronics are USB powered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been on Valor (recently) and Sunshine (two years ago) and my cabins didn't have USB ports on either. As someone else said, I think those are only on Vista currently.

N7786W Flyer Posted September 22, 2016 #9 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I'm on the Valor right now (headed to a blacked out Puerto Rico...and hope the power is back on by the time we get there) and there are no USB ports in our stateroom 9197.

I'm going to toss it into my bag anyway, and if it gets confiscated, oh well. Save I'm curious, you know that its not allowed and the reason is because a surge protector is dangerous and you are going to see if its confiscated? Wouldn't you be worried that its dangerous instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
originalgeek Posted September 22, 2016 #17 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I always take this when I travel. Just about all my electronics are USB powered. ...image... Mine's a different brand but same thing. Worked great as we had two phones, 2 tablets and a camera. That would have been all we needed if we hadn't also had to plug in the CPAP so we got an extension cord from Guest Services and it had 3 plugs at the end so we never lacked a charging port.

CruisingRavyn Posted September 22, 2016 #18 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I was on the Valor in July after the upgrade and it did not have USB ports. Still just the one plug. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
