| Tripp Lite TRAVELER Protect It Surge ProtectorSuppressor 2 Outlets 2 Transformers For Laptop Use Direct PlugIn 1050 JoulesPosted on July 7, 2011.  Protect IT PS5503M Traveler Laptop Surge Protector 510 joules; Built-in RJ11 jacksCommentsJackson Bartoli says... A surge suppressor should be in every laptop travel bag, and this compact unit travels well, taking up very little space.However, for those traveling outside the USA, it should be noted that this unit does NOT convert electricity!My colleague forgot this tidbit and fried his Tripp Lite Traveler while overseas.On the plus side, now we know it really works. Posted on July 7, 2011 Heike Zema says... I recently returned from a Med cruise and used this surge protector on the cruise ship and also at the airport when I could find an outlet...Great Product..The prongs are retractable which is easy to transport with the laptop and protects the case for the laptop while traveling. Posted on July 8, 2011 Von Leiby says... I am an independent consultant and am always working on my laptop.For the last few months I have been working in an older building which every now and then has power surges.So far, this small surge suppressor has worked great.It is small enough to stick in a pocket of my carrying case and it has space for 2 plugs to be used at the same time.The electrical prongs slide into the device so there is no risk that they will break off in transport.A light comes on to let you know the device is working.My only complaint is that the button you press to have the prongs retract seems to be a little flimsy.So far, that has not been a problem. Posted on July 8, 2011 Ingeborg Ching says... The product doesn't have any voltage compatability ratings on the product itself or accompanying literature that I could find. On the web site, however, it shows the voltage compatability at 120 VAC. The product should therefore not be used overseas in countries where the voltage is 220 VAC. Posted on July 9, 2011 Thersa Wilusz says... I love this product.Unfortunately, I blew mine up in West Africa (my computer was not damaged), so when I returned I ordered another right away.I wish that it were a little thinner, but I suppose you can't have everything....at least right now! Posted on July 9, 2011 Danita Krehel says... This traveler surge suppressor has a retractable plug to connect to an outlet.The mechanism that locks the plug out is extremely hard to activate and it is impossible to push the plug into an outlet without it being locked.Otherwise, the device appears to be as advertised. Posted on July 9, 2011 Kenya Wee says... works great but the retractable prongs are the weak point. I travel with it all the time and it has protected my lap at least twice from power surges. Just have to be careful when inserting the prongs into the wall socket. Posted on July 9, 2011 Lecia Liming says... We have been using these on our computers for a couple of years.We use them not only on laptops and are really pleased. Posted on July 11, 2011 Patty Berkovich says... Basically it's the best mov surge protector for a laptop. mov's are little disks in the surge protector that litterally pop when a surge spike happens. If you can handle the small weight difference the white isoblok 2-0 is better. It is a lower joule rating but offers a 0 sec. clamp time and lower voltage threshold. A spike only lasts around 1ns and a surge 3 ns. This adapter is ok at under 1ns. It is at 150 volts though and the isoblock is at 140 volts. Remember that not all power out of a socket is at 120 volts (110 in Japan). Either way you would need a new adapter every year just to be safe as the mov's are only worth 1 spike. Its far cheaper than buying a new laptop. Posted on July 11, 2011 Felton Donnellon says... Here's hoping you never need a surge suppressor, but if you do then this one is great for travelling being compact and collapsable and still offering a reasonable level of protection.
