TRIPP LITE Travel Power Strip with 2 USB & 1050J Surge

The TRIPP LITE TRAVELER3USB is a compact travel surge protector that combines three grounded AC outlets, two USB charging ports, and 1050 joules of surge suppression in a slim, right-angle‑plug design.

Designed to fit easily in luggage or a laptop bag, this Eaton/Tripp Lite travel power strip protects laptops, phones and other portable electronics from spikes and line noise while keeping devices charged. Its flat, right-angle plug and 18‑inch cord tuck neatly around the unit for storage, and a visible protection indicator plus automatic shutdown add safeguards against persistent faults. The unit also carries a limited lifetime warranty and $25,000 connected equipment coverage for added confidence.

How does this power strip protect my devices while traveling?

The TRAVELER3USB uses 1050 joules of surge suppression and EMI/RFI filtering to reduce the risk of damage from transient voltage spikes and electrical noise. If the suppression circuitry fails or becomes compromised, the unit’s automatic shutoff severs output power so downstream gear won’t be exposed to unprotected voltage.

• 1050 joules surge energy rating for transient absorption
• EMI/RFI line-noise filtering to improve signal stability
• Automatic shutoff if protection is compromised
• Green LED shows active protection status

Can I charge phones and tablets directly from it?

Yes — two USB‑A ports are integrated for charging mobile devices without occupying the AC outlets. The ports share a combined 2.1A output, letting you top up a phone and a small tablet simultaneously at reasonable speeds for travel usage.

• Two side-facing USB‑A ports for easy access
• 2.1A total USB output for multi-device charging
• Leaves all three AC outlets free for larger plugs or transformers

Is the TRAVELER3USB convenient for packing and hotels?

The compact housing and right-angle (flat) NEMA 5-15P plug are optimized for tight spaces behind furniture and in airline-style power strips found in hotel rooms. The 18‑inch cord wraps around the body and can be tucked into a recessed slot so the unit sits flat in a bag or drawer.

• Flat plug reduces clearance behind desks or nightstands
• 18" cord length balances reach with portability
• One spaced outlet accommodates bulky adapters
• Lightweight, travel-friendly footprint fits laptop bags

What kind of warranty and insurance come with the unit?

This surge protector is backed by the manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty and includes $25,000 of connected equipment insurance, providing financial coverage in the unlikely event protected devices are damaged during a covered surge event. Eaton/Tripp Lite technical support is available for setup and troubleshooting.

• Limited lifetime manufacturer warranty
• $25,000 connected equipment coverage
• Manufacturer support via phone, web, or email
