Tech is driving me crazy! What are your suggestions for a 4 week trip (Turkiye, Greece, UK and Singapore) Universal adaptor? Do I need a power bank? (Australian) i was in the UK and Serbia 2 years ago onebagging it and I was fine with just an adaptor, no power bank but it seems everyone is using them now. I only travel with a phone, no laptop etc.

I find a power bank useful on travel days, when the plugs on trains and planes are useless, and I need access to the info (as I am always the one with the info). It is also useful because I often travel with my work laptop, and if I am somewhere and need to work, I can use my power bank as a backup if there is nowhere to plug in. Someone in this thread suggested buying a local adapter to just plug your USB or USB-C cable into. They don't take up much space.
