I love Insignia for products like this. You don't need a $60 charger when a $20 charger does the job just as well. Easy to set up.

I played this through when it first came out on the Playstation 3. I wanted to revisit it before the sequel comes out this fall, but I wanted updated graphics. Boom. Thanks, XBox One! Looks amazing.

Ink-splatting action is back and fresher than ever The squid kids called Inklings are back to splat more ink and claim more turf in this colorful and chaotic 4-on-4 action shooter. For the first time, take Turf War battles on-the-go with the Nintendo Switch system, and use any of the console~s portable play styles for intense local multiplayer* action. Even team up for new 4-player co-op fun in Salmon Run! Expect a fresh wave of fashion, not to mention new weapons and gear. Dual wield the new Splat Dualies or stick to mainstays like chargers and rollers, which have been remixed with new strategic possibilities. As always, Turf War is the favored sport among Inklings, but they also dig ranked battles, taking down Octarians in a robust single-player campaign, and battling enemy Salmonids in one dangerous part-time job! No matter which way you play, splat at home or on-the-go with Nintendo Switch. Staying fresh never felt so good. *Additional games and systems required for multiplayer mode. Sold separately. **Nintendo Switch Online membership (sold separately) and Nintendo Account required for online play. This game does not support Save Data Cloud backup. Not available in all countries. Internet access required for online features. Terms apply. nintendo.com/switch-online ***Persistent Internet and compatible smartphone required to use the Nintendo Switch Online app; data charges may apply. Nintendo Account age 13+ required. Parental controls for the Nintendo Switch Online app cannot be set from the Nintendo Switch Parental Controls app~they must be managed through your smartphone's parental control restriction settings. ~ 2017 Nintendo.

My daughter's new favorite game
on April 20, 2018
Posted by: Dubya
from Houston, Tx
Verified Purchase:Yes
Ever since I bought Splatoon 2, nothing else has been played on my daughter's Switch. It's a fun game with FPS action, but it's packaged in a kid-friendly "painting" concept. I've watched her play and wanted to get in the action myself, but she's not sharing. Highly recommend it.

Does a great job at half the price

I bought this to charge my controllers for the backup PS4 in my office. It's exactly what I needed, and at a fraction of the price of some of the other controller chargers. It also doesn't have that annoying push down trick of the other chargers that often ends up with me re-starting the PS4 that I just shut down. Go get one.

I've been looking for a large backup storage drive for all of my photos. I have a Mac, and a lot of drives require reformatting, twirling three times, and drinking eye of newt. This one only took a couple of clicks to reformat it to Mac OS. So far, I love it.

I'm sure that there's a difference between this $14 surge protector and the $3,000,000 Monster surge protectors, but I'm not tech savvy enough to notice, and this one does it's job nicely.

Ridiculous and Awesome
on January 26, 2018
Posted by: Dubya
from Houston, Tx
Verified Purchase:Yes
This game is an absolute blast. Easy to pick up and play, but still has so much to master. Competition is all about skill and there is no pay to play. You can buy new skins, and keys to unlock bonus chests, but all items add purely aesthetic value. There are no "better" cars, wheels, gear, etc. I bought a second copy so that I can play with my daughter (although it does work in split-screen).

Refill option is a great addition

I really like that Best Buy is now offering CO2 refills for Soda Stream tanks instead of having to purchase a new one. For one, it's green. For two, it keeps more green in my pocket. Refills cost half as much as a new tank.

Is this unit suitable for use with IPhone 6?

Yes. And iPad, and battery chargers, Apple watch, electric razor, electric toothbrush, etc. :) I've got all plugged in right now, and it's humming along nicely.

With the appropriate adaptor for each U S-designed plug, can it be plugged into a European-style outlet?

I am going to France next month for a river cruise. The river boat will only have the 220 plugs available in our cabin. Most of my electronic needs already can handle the dual voltage requirement for use in both the US and in Europe. If I put the appropriate plug adaptor onto this outlet's US-style plugs, can I plug it into the hotel's and the boat's 220 outlets so that I can then use my US dual voltage items without their own adaptors?
I don't know if this answer will help you now, since your trip has already passed. But for anyone else facing a similar issue, I wouldn't recommend it. My answer is not based on this particular item, but on a different USB/AC adapter. I was recently in South Africa and tried to plug a block similar to this one into a wall using the appropriate S.A. adapter. Heard a loud pop and then the lights went out. My dad used a regular old power strip in his room and had no issues. Guess you can always take both, and use the power strip as a backup.
