Business Travel Essentials
On the grid
THE key to travelling efficiently and at reduced stress levels is to be organised. Cocoon describes its innovative product Grid-It as “a gadget’s best friend” and this system of elastic bands does its job admirably as a customisable holdall for everything from cables to headphones.
Green means go
SUITABLE for use in 170 countries, Dr Klever’s travel adapter will keep you connected, wherever your journey. Compact and featuring three USB ports and four plug adapters, it charges an array of devices from all brands. Because of its bright colour, you’re also less likely to forget it and leave it in a hotel room.
Wallet warrior
ONLY 1.5mm thick and made from heattreated steel, the Wallet Ninja is your go-to in case of minor emergencies. The creditcard sized gadget has 16 tools including screwdrivers and spanners and can be used as a phone stand, to open letters, boxes and even a bottle. While TSA-approved, some users report it being confiscated at airport security so best pack it in handheld luggage.
