I just backed this Kickstarter, ordering two of these puppies. The most common power adapter for international travel is just a plastic block with plugs that slide in and out to give you AC power. It probably adjusts the voltage for whatever country you're from.

This device is quite cool. It does the plug conversion for you, but it also has USB-A and C fast charge outlets! So theoretically when you travel, you can leave all your little adapters at home and just plug in to this device and charge five or six devices at the same time!

It's not hugely expensive at about $65 for one, I'm backing for two and a couple of cables. My thought is to keep one in my backpack and have the other so we'll have two adapters for international travel.

The Kickstarter is open for another two weeks, they're expecting to ship in July.

Yes, but is it good on other planets?

If it claims to be universal, then all of them. sort of the babble fish of electrical adapters.
