Next to my always-packed ready-to-toss-into-a-suitcase toiletry bag is another, more essential, sack 'o goodies – a pre-packed ready-to-toss-into-a-suitcase gadget travel case. Shampoo and razors can easily be replaced upon arrival, but these are the top gadgets you shouldn't be on the road without.
What, another $20 AC outlet expander with a USB jack? I'm a belt/suspender kind of guy. But I carry two outlet expanders for three reasons: One, I often need power at the night stand where the outlet is filled by the alarm clock and table lamp; two, it's really handy at the airport when the limited number of available jacks in the waiting area are filled (and I'm usually hailed as a hero since I've now opened up two more jacks); and, three, it's got a foot-long extension cable for those hard-to-reach jacks, and the cable wraps around the outlets and plugs into the far outlet for compact packing and portage.
