  •  Reduce cabin noise (mechanical or HUMAN) and make travel more comfortable. 
  • I have used: Sony, Bose, & Apple. It really depends if you prefer over the ear or ear buds.

Voltage Transformer

Voltage Transformer Power Rating

  • Look at the label on your device or charger. 
    • If it says “Input: 100–240V”, it’s dual voltage — no transformer needed, just a plug adapter. 
    • If it says “120V only”, you’ll need a transformer in countries using 220–240V.
       

Voltage Transformer Power Rating

 Always match or exceed your device’s wattage:

  • Phone, camera, shaver: under 50W 
  • Laptop, tablet: 50–100W

  • Choose a converter 25%–50% higher than your device’s wattage for safety.
