BESTEK - 200W Travel Adapter & Power Converter [Personal Product Review]

I bought this recently to travel oversea and uses this and now I back home, I have an need to review this as I can see the pro and the con of this product. Where I go? Main land China and the city of Hong Kong (China). That not the point of this blog but it does tell you something. Main land China uses "Plug A" and "Plug I", while Hong Kong uses the same plug type as UK which is "Plug G". Now the reason I bought a power converter and not just an adapter is that US voltage is lower then the rest of the world. Now of days new devices got duel charging ability so you just need an adapter but please read the fine print in the back to be sure however (like me) if you not sure or just in case kind of thing then get an converter just to be safe.

Here the link of the product I bought:
[Patent Protected] BESTEK Travel Adapter 220V to 110V Voltage Converter with 6A 4 USB Ports and UK/AU/US/EU Plug Adapter

What You Get:
1 x BESTEK Power Voltage Converter
1 x EU Cable (Plug C)
3 x Travel Adapter (Universal Travel Adapter For Plug A, G, & I)
1 x Carrying Bag

Plug Information Link

I got this version because of the "travel bag", there one without the bag (also cost less) but I want the bag and I don't regret it as I don't have to deal with storing it away.

Pro:
  • It work and that all it matter

Con:
  • The main problem is the EU Cable (Plug C) is too lose when plugin in to any of the universal travel adapter that come with this product. If it too lose it will not connect and get power. Unless you traveling to Europe then this is not a problem. For those who are not then this can be an issue of safety concern. To made it work I have manipulate the cable to make it hold, depending on where I plug the adapter to, whether it on a wall socket (vertical) or on the flat surface (horizontal). [I recommending buying something to convert Plug C to any other plug type as those are less lose on the universal travel adapter to be safe from an accident (such as fire or electrical). I getting one myself]
  • It make noise when turn on [Recommend using only during the day or away from people at night if people mind the noise]
