Fit-for-purpose: what to check

TIP

Packing Pro Tip ⚡

Pack one USB-C cable per device group and one multiport charger. Keep cables coiled with Velcro ties and store the charger in an easy-to-reach pocket so security checks don’t scatter your kit.

Universal USB-C Charger: Simplify Your Travel Setup — Real-world tips and micro-stories

I once flew for a LAN with three devices and a single multiport USB-C brick. At OR Tambo I only had that one charger and swapped cables between friends without hunting sockets. Little wins like a detachable cable or a charger with an extra USB-A port make long travel days smoother.

  • Carry a small surge protector or metal travel plug if you move between different socket types.
  • Label cables with tiny coloured tape to avoid swapping controllers or phone leads mid-tournament.
