I have a number of gadgets that can charge via USB. This is convenient when I’m on the road because I can just pack couple of USB cables, rather than several bulky AC adapters. Unfortunately, if I want to charge these devices overnight, I have to leave my laptop running. That’s why these little Brighton Bi-Plugs caught my eye. They’re very simple and straight-forward, one end plugs into the wall, the other has a female USB port. Just toss one of these in your bag and you’ll be good to go. These will go on sale November 28th for an undisclosed price.

If the engineering of this product received the same diligence as the translation of the website, I think I’ll pass. Besides, people’s opinions from countries whose “safety standards” still allow uninsulated pins may differ, but to me it looks just dangerously cheap.
Oo its not like such things are rare, i got one with my ultra-cheap-made-in-china mp4 player .. thought the color is challengeing >_
