Travelling is the essence of life, where you set mind free from your hectic work schedule and explore the places which you ever wanted to.
The year 2021 has been a huge improvement from 2020, not only in terms of travel but also in tech. Massive innovation has come through and these days it’s hard to stay up to date. Here are 6 travel gadgets that you will need this year. These are the sort of innovative and new travel gadgets that will make your friends jealous and make them go wow.
1. Magnetic Charging Power Bank
Power banks are already a must-have travel gadget. But how about this magnetic charging power bank. This is a wireless power bank that magnetically attaches to your phone. You no longer need to use a rubber band to tie your phone to a non-magnetic wireless power bank. The power bank can stay stuck to the back of your phone all through those bumpy roads, using its internal magnets. This prevents any friction from happening between your phone and the power bank. You no longer need to reserve wireless charging as something that’s only done in hotel rooms and stationary vehicles. This device is one you can use while walking in the park, on a high-speed train, on an airplane that’s taking off, in a crowded carnival, and in many other high mobility situations. To add to that, it delivers extremely safe fast charging. This is surely the best travel gadget on this list.
2. Vibrating Eye Massager
This is a product that will help you relax during your flight. This eye mask not only vibrates but also can be used as headphones. It plays cool relaxing music while it vibrates and massages your eyes. Music can be played directly from your phone through Bluetooth. It’s portable and doesn’t need to be connected to a power source for use.
In order to enhance your travel or road trip experience, don’t forget to grab a decent pair of earphones and vibe with your favorite songs.
3. UV Toothbrush Sanitizer
This toothbrush sanitizer helps deal with 99.9% of bacteria in your toothbrush. A travel gadget like this is especially important in 2021. This not only keeps you clean but also keeps you safe from dangerous micro-organisms. It automatically switches on when you put your toothbrush inside. It stays on, disinfecting your brush for 5 minutes, then automatically switches off.
4. Portable Water Purifier Pen
This UV light pen kills 99.9% of bacteria in your drinking water. It kills viruses and protozoa, like Giardia and Cryptosporidium. Purifying your water is especially useful when traveling to rural regions and third-world countries. The pen is pretty simple to use. Just stick it into your bottle and steer it. How long you steer it depends on how many liters your water you got. The pen can purify a full liter of water in 90 seconds.
Also, since you’re travelling a strong and durable Type-C charging cable is always a must. The braided cables are able to withstand impacts and yet work flawlessly.
5. Portable Bladeless Neck Fan
If you travel to warmer climates, you need this one. This neck fan is similar to other portability neck fans, except it has no visible blades. The tiny blades are hidden within the shell, and there are 60 pairs of them spinning. There are 48 outlets through which the cool air they produce comes out. This neck fan is shaped in such a way that makes it look like headphones. This avoids you from getting odd looks from people while on the go. Its design stops your hair from getting cut in the blades. This also makes it safe for children to use too. It’s very light on your neck, weighing only 7.8 ounces, which is much lighter than an iPhone 12 Pro Max. The neck fan has a 1,800 mAh battery capacity. So it’s able to run for 2.5 to 7 hours depending on the fan speed. While it’s charging time to full is about 3 hours. It has 3 different fan speeds. You need not worry about noise pollution, the lowest speed is as silent as a leaf dropping. The middle speed is as quiet as someone whispering. And the highest speed is as subtle as someone talking on the phone. This travel gadget will give you the cool you need during summer and dry seasons.
6. Umbrella Hat
Moms who travel with toddlers seem to love this one a lot. It’s a hands-free umbrella. An Amazon reviewer said, “…You may feel at first a bit odd, but who cares?! It’s so convenient, and well-designed that you’ll forget you are wearing it…”. Another reviewer said, “This is the perfect hat for moms with infants and toddlers! I can chase my toddler outside while carrying my infant and the baby stays protected from the sun!…”.
Another benefit of a hands-free umbrella is that you can use your phone or tablet to type with two hands. You’ll be able to take proper travel photos, with the umbrella blocking direct sunlight from your phone camera lens. You can use your GPS and other apps with two hands while the umbrella shade protects your phone from overheating. This travel gadget takes convenience to another level.
