USB Wall Charger Review : iClever 6 Port Travel USB Wall Charger
The iClever 6 port USB travel Wall Charger is a brilliant way to reduce the amount of USB chargers that you need to take with you when you travel. Better still, it only takes up one wall plug socket. So, if you are in an airport and spot a wall socket and need to charge your gear up, this works great. If your hotel room doesn't have many free sockets it works too. Basically, as long as you have one available wall socket, you can keep all your essential travel gear charging from one place. This is ideal for digital nomads, backpackers, and bicycle tourers, who need to charge cameras, smartphones, gps devices and tablets all at the same time.
I've got the UK version, which means it comes with a UK plug. I assume that people purchasing from other countries will have power leads suitable for them. This leads me to one question – Why not put a socket adapter in the pack, or make it part of the design? It is a travel USB wall charger after all. Don't get me wrong though, it does not detract from what is a well designed and manufactured travel device. Check this video out, where I explain about the 6 port USB charger in more detail.
What's left to say then? It is a deceptively simple USB hub that has some built in tech which detects the power requirements of attached devices. Its output of 50W through 6 ports, means that it works to charge all attached electronic gear up as fast as possible. It is well built, and weighs in at just 180g. It is certainly being added to my list of essential travel gear I use as a digital nomad! This is going to be so handy speed-charging all my electronic gear up whenever I find a power outlet on the road! I can charge my Tecknet Iep1500 Power Bank over night, and have enough power for my devices for a few days on the road. My score is a 9.5/10, and it would have made a 10 with the power socket adapter included. Great stuff!

This looks like a great device that I could definitely benefit from. Thanks for sharing!
Don says
Thanks for the review. This looks like the perfect device for us travelers that have too many electronics. I know from our last trip we used a Belkin wall charger with two outlets and two USB, and we could have used more inputs. Might have to grab one of these and pack it in the carry-on too. Appreciate the honest feedback.
Mary says
YES! That would have been amazing for us when we were traveling more rapidly. What a great idea, think i’ll need to grab one even for just at the house!
Marie-Carmen says
With all the devices you get lately that can use USB charging this is pretty clever and useful! It also looks small enough to pack. Looks like a great thing to take to travel!
Stacey Valle says
that looks so much better than what I have! It sounds like it is very efficient to charge all at once. It would be definitely better if it does include the power socket adapter. it looks great
Aileen says
Great review! I am a digital nomad as well and this would absolutely help! Thanks for the heads-up. I’ll definitely take a look into it.

I like how compact it is, it would be great for charging at home too!
Delia says
How efficient is the charging? That’s the only concern I would have, especially when multiple ports are used at once. Other than that, seems like a great piece of travel gear.
Dave Briggs says
It recognizes devices which are attached and powers them appropriately

It looks like a great device. I sometimes want to charge my tablet, mobile and camera at the same time while travelling. Exactly what i need
Dave Briggs says
It’s perfect for that. You can plug everything in over night, wake up in the morning and its all charged
Stephanie says
wow! Looks really compact! Good for charging up everything.
Dave Briggs says
Yep, really handy for either travel or the home I think.
