The World’s Most Advanced Travel Adapter ChargEST

In present world, keeping mobile devices charged is absolutely required. Living in such a technologically driven society means that people need to stay connected for work, socializing, and entertainment. This is especially important when traveling, as it can be easy to fall behind if one goes a week without being online. Still, it can be difficult and expensive to be able to charge devices when traveling to other countries.

Different parts of the world use different outlets, which can mean purchasing many different travel adapters. This result is both costly and inefficient; having many adapters can quickly fill up room in one’s bag or suitcase. For this reason, the Bulgarian tech company Forwrd has created a universal travel adapter that not only provides charging options for any outlet, but also is incredibly small and affordable. It is the perfect adapter for the traveller who desires to use devices overseas, whether for work or play.
