SCLGFam2008 Posted April 9, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Knowing there is only 1 outlet in each cabin and having phones/ipads to charge I was wondering which is the best? Any recommendations would be great. Leaving in 4 days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teknoge3k Posted April 9, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I just use a regular power strip similar to this one. A few bucks on Amazon or your local big box store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizardhowson Posted April 9, 2018 #3 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Any power strip without a surge protector as surge protected power strips can malfunction (due to current on ships) and are not permitted. Get a cheap one at Walmart, the dollar store and you will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Organized Chaos Posted April 9, 2018 #5 Share Posted April 9, 2018 got one. my coworker had a three way plug he is letting me use :)That's what we take, a 3-way adapter and a 10 ft. extension cord. We find it more handy than a power strip. I take a portable fan and the long cord lets me put it by the bed. And my wife can stretch it into the bathroom for her curling iron. Just make sure these things are new or like new condition. I would recommend that things like this be taken in carry-on luggage if possible. Because sometimes the terminal employees aren't always knowledgeable about certain things that are allowed. If it's with me in my carry-on, I can at least plead my case. Otherwise, you get a letter in your cabin letting you know it's been confiscated and can be picked up at the end of the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty dingo Posted April 9, 2018 #6 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Also consider a USB hub. Phones, tablets, and spare batteries can all be charged from a USB hub connected to a laptop or wall adapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkneern Posted April 10, 2018 #7 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I just use a regular power strip similar to this one. A few bucks on Amazon or your local big box store. Got one just like this at our local Dollar store made by Sunbeam and take it every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted April 10, 2018 #8 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I got one of the three plug deals at the dollar store that I’ve been using for 7 cruises now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted April 10, 2018 #9 Share Posted April 10, 2018 We use a long, three outlet extension cord. We also bring a Euro plug adapter to use with our 220v or dual voltage electronics. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
