Epicka 70W Universal Travel Adapter

A universal adapter with five charging ports

A 70W GaN travel adapter for US, UK, EU and AU outlets, with 3 USB-C and 2 USB-A ports.

Our take

Epicka says this adapter works in 150+ countries, with plugs for US, UK, EU and AU outlets. The five ports let several devices charge from a single wall socket, which keeps hotel rooms and airport lounges tidy. It is an adapter only and does not convert voltage. High-wattage appliances like hair dryers or straighteners need dual-voltage ratings or they will not work safely. It makes a compact stocking stuffer for anyone who travels abroad.

Who it’s for

Frequent international travelers who carry several phones, tablets or laptops and want one compact charger for every outlet type.

Skip it if

Skip it if you travel only inside one country or need a voltage converter for non-dual-voltage appliances; a basic plug adapter set is enough instead.

Epicka 70W Universal Travel Adapter: questions people ask

Is a universal travel adapter allowed in carry-on?

Generally yes. Universal adapters have no batteries or liquids, so they're typically allowed in carry-on bags, though screening can vary slightly by airport.

Can I use this adapter with a hair dryer or straightener?

Only if the appliance is labeled dual-voltage. The adapter does not change voltage, so single-voltage 110V devices will be damaged on 220V power.

How many devices can charge at once?

Up to five: three via USB-C and two via USB-A. Total output is capped at 70W, so high-draw laptops may share power with phones or tablets.
