Simple, portable design for daily or casual on-the-go use.
A simple solution whether you want to make sure your USB charging devices as well as other devices are protected at home or on the go and traveling. Like the other travel charger I purchased prior, this one also comes with a nice drawstring travel pouch for on-the-go travel. It contains three outlets: two on the side and one at the bottom center with two USB ports at the top. Clear and visible LED light to indicate your plug-in outlet is protecting all devices plugged into the device. I personally use this in the house in a spare area that I have a counter where I'd normally rest my mobile device to charge during short in-between stays before running to work or another errand. While only a 2.1 AMP charger, it more than suits my needs and allows me to not obstruct a much needed outlet space since I don't have to plug in the combo charger/USB connector into the device -- I'm able to plug the USB in direct to this unit to charge. This makes it more ideal for on-the-go travel since it gives you three outlets that are nicely spaced regardless of what you plug into the unit and most mobile charging devices currently have a detachable USB cord so this gives me the ability to charge a BlueTooth headset and cell while traveling. At times hotels can experience less than ideal energy flow, with this unit -- you can ensure that you have your device protected while on the go and traveling. It's easy to register the device through the Tripp Lite site and ensure the $5,000 Ultimate Lifetime Insurance (U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico only) covers your gear. This is not intended to maintain a mini entertainment center, it's more for on-the-go use but Tripp Lite also offers a variety of good devices for surge protection if you're looking for protection on a larger amount of equipment. While it may look ideal for use with a Raspberry Pi and side equipment, I have not personally tested this specifically, it should have the AMP coverage needed to easily supply a unit for those looking for an all contained travel or stationary unit in the home. If in the future should I see that it can protect and supply power properly to a device I'll make a note to update this review. Most of my electronic gear gets put on the larger surge protector so I've not yet seen a use for it in this manner. Regardless, I'd recommend this device for normal or on-the-go travel use.

Great for travel or tight spaces at home
Power/charge multiple options w/ 3 outlets and 2 USB slots. No matter where you are, you are no longer limited by lack of power outlets or have to bring USB adaptors. I just started using this device and can't speak to its durability.

Perfect
It has 3 standard plug in slots, and 2 USB slots, it charges devices at a very good rate, has a green light that shows power is good. The prongs on the back side fold into the mini power protector nice and neat. I use it at home, at work while out at sea overall a great device to protect your electronic from power surges.

A Must For Travelers
I got this to charge my travel router, but it ended up getting used for so much more.I travel a lot for my work, and I am frequently in hotel rooms with only one or two accessible outlets. (The Ritz, these are not...) It used to be a real headache, choosing between the clock, lamp, laptop, phone charger or iPad. If you were charging a camera battery or something that blocks outlets, you were truly hosed.Along comes the Tripp Lite 3, and boom, problems solved. It takes the top plug and gives you 3 more outlets PLUS 2 USB charging ports. You can easily charge your phone and tablet plus have room for a laptop and anything else you need. You don't have to worry about blowing a fuse either, since this has one in it. (A little peace of mind when this turns into a power medusa next to your head.)My only downside that I can think of, is the plug itself is a fold out kind (the top two prongs fold down into the ground prong) which leaves me with some concerns about long term life expectancy. But I have been using this for a few years and there have been no such issues.

Initially I really liked this because it's easy to pack
Initially I really liked this because it's easy to pack, the plug folds flat and having 3 ac outlets and 2 USB ports is terrific. The only negative I found using it is that sometimes it is too long to fit in a cramped space in some hotels. For example, many hotels have an outlet in the base of the bedside lamps but the Surge protector is too long to fit between the table and the outlet. Sometimes you can solve that by moving the lamp so the protector can hang over the edge of the table. It all depends on the direction of the ground on the outlet. Sadly, after having it for 13 months exactly, both USB ports stopped working. So it is now useless. Checking on the warranty.
