Anyone who has actually used it on a cruise ship, did it get confiscated?

I just recently (May 2023) went on the Oasis of the Sea. I brought this power strip because Royal Caribbean was listed as cruise lines that approved this device. Mine was confiscated at the X-ray machine before getting to check in. The employee said they are not allowed even the ones that are non surge may get confiscated. My power strip was still in the original cruise on box from Amazon. Didn’t matter. I was told I could pick it up after the cruise from security but I didn’t. Please be sure to take your charging plugs with you because on Oasis there are no USB ports just 3 regular plug outlets. Luckily, I had brought another power cube that I bought from Amazon, that was also in my carry on but that one didn’t get confiscated. That cube had regular plug outlets and USB ports.

what is the difference between this power strip or a normal power strip?

This is not a power strip or a power surge protector. It is a cruise ship approved plug in adapter and USB ports.

Will this work on Oceania Cruises?

Absolutely - our cruise power strip (non surge) will work on Oceania Cruise Ships. Every cabin has a standard 110v that is fully compatible with this cruise accessory.

If this isn't surge protected what does the "vpr (l-n):800v" that is printed on the back mean? vpr stands for voltage protection rating.

This language was accidentally printed on a very small set of our items (although the product was still, properly Non-surge protected). It was just the product details printed on the back that were incorrect. We estimate that this impacted less than 1% of our sold items. We're happy to exchange those with "vpr (l-n):800v" for one without for any users that received these. All of our non-surge power strips purchased since and all of those bought from this listing will NOT have this language printed on the item.

Right size, right number of ports, works as advertised

The item is a charging block. While the unit is cruise approved (hopefully it means what is stated), I primarily use this while traveling for work. Just enough USB ports for me to charge my iPhone, iPad, (with adapter) iWatch, and dive computer. The profile is small enough to fit in my backpack side pocket. The reason why I purchased this item was the way the 120v AC cord enters the unit. The cable has a shield that protects from angular fraying. My last unit the power cord frayed right at the block rendering the unit unsafe. This one seems better. The item works as advertised.

Great item but prohibited on Royal Caribbean

I bought this for our Royal Caribbean cruise last week, before boarding the ship the security staff took it away and returned it after the cruise. They said it is no longer allowed on Royal Caribbean, I’m not sure about other cruise lines. If they did allow it, it could have been very useful and wonderful to use.

My Go-To Travel Charging Station

I bring this little power strip with me every time I travel—not just for cruises. So many hotels and motels still don’t have USB outlets, and I always have multiple devices to charge. This power strip is compact, lightweight, and gives me the extra outlets and USB ports I need without taking up room in my bag. Super convenient and perfect for road trips, flights, and hotel stays.

Works great

Used on our recent cruise and no issues. Lots of plugs and ports so we were covered for all our power needs. Compact and easy to pack and use. Long cord makes it easy to put the power where you need it. Worked all week continually with no issue so seems durable.

Good compact power strip

Good mix of plug types. Compact and appreciate the placement of plug ins. Use it for travel which is helpful when hotel plugs are damaged or not near the bed.
