Over the past couple of years, I've moved to having all my tech gadgets use USB-C charging, which has made life much easier in terms of needing to carry power packs and power adapters around. But Now I think I've found my ideal travel charger system - at least under current requirements...

Not sure who else has heard this but "Cabin Pressure" The audio sitcom starring Benedict coughberbatch, John Finnemore, Roger Allam, Stephanie Cole. Well worth a listen and a chuckle for those of us interested in airlines The entire seasons 1-4 + specials are available on Spotify - remember...
