Headline: 5 Best Travel Gadgets

With the pandemic seemingly calming down on a global scale travelling has become an option again for many people. Travel gadgets have come a long way since the days of having a set of adapters just laying around in your luggage. With new innovations in technology comes a large variety of travel accessories to make vacations more enjoyable.

Travel gadgets have become an essential part of just about every packing list. Many IT support companies  recommend travel gadgets for their employees. Whether you are travelling for holidays or business purposes there are gadgets that are best suited for you. Most people who work in  IT Support Services found the gadgets below extremely useful while travelling

Cable Organizer

If you are a regular traveller, then you know the pain of having to pull a charger cable from the depths of your bag after it was cramped in a plane. A cable organizer keeps all your cables and adaptors neatly tucked away so that you do not have the issue of having to untangle them. It makes packing an unpacking an absolute breeze. Another nice feature is that it is nice and compact while being very functional.

Fingerprint padlock

I’m sure many of you may not like passwords or carrying around small little keys that can easily be lost. Well, say thanks to technology as it has brought us a padlock that unlocks with the touch of a finger. There are ones that last for 2500 unlocks and that are waterproof. It is best to invest in one that is stainless steel.

Universal Travel Adapter

Travelling always means that you need to have the right adapter for the right country. This can be quite a pain that the OREI M8 All-In-One International World travel plug, and adapter takes care of. This one is quite durable as it will not break after just a few trips even if you put it through a lot of stress. The OREI M8 All-In-One International World travel plug comes highly recommended by business IT support London.

Portable Luggage Scale 

Have you ever found that your luggage is over the weight limit no matter how light you thought you may have packed. The Tarriss Portable Luggage Scale is small, light, and affordable so that you can take it anywhere with you. By using it you can ensure that you never experience a baggage overage again.

“Show Yourself,” from the new album Emperor of Sand, remains in the Top 5 Active Rock Chart after several consecutive weeks. The album continues its ascent towards greater heights and is catching the attention of a new legion of fans:
“Emperor Of Sand… a further evolution of the band’s fusion of metal and prog-rock interests. It’s music of complexity and feeling.” – The Los Angeles Times

“Deeply personal…There’s immediacy to it, something intimate in the way it approaches life and death. Emperor Of Sand sees Mastodon laying their rock roots on the table. Mastodon’s strength is in their ability to harness musical madness into a cohesive vision.” – Nerdist

Headliner Modest Mouse will release their new studio album, Strangers to Ourselves, via Epic Records on March 3 just prior to their appearance at GMF making this their first studio album since 2007’s “We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank.” Modest Mouse gained mainstream attention when their 2004 single, “Float On” became the band’s first #1 song on Billboard’s Modern Rock Chart and was nominated for a 2005 Grammy Award for Best Rock Song. The band’s first new single “Lampshades on Fire,” can be heard via Pitchfork: http://goo.gl/zT9g1M

New Orleans favorite Mutemath, whose sound fuses elements from psychedelia to traditional gospel to modern electronica yet still firmly rooted in New Orleans rhythm and blues, will also be releasing a new recording later this year. While Jamaican roots reggae trio, The Abyssinians, are famous for their close harmonies and promotion of the Rastafari movement within their lyrics. Formed in 1968, the band has gone through a number of lineup changes with the current trio touring since 1997 including dates at Reggae on the River, Sierra Nevada World Music Festival and The Bob Marley Day Festival in 1998. The group was also nominated for a 1999 Tamika Award.

GMF, now in its fourth year of showcasing a wide variety of musical acts, incredible local cuisine and unique children’s music exhibits, kicks off the highly anticipated spring break and outdoor music festival season. The Festival promises its most eclectic and impressive musical line-up to date with more acts and local favorites to be announced in the upcoming weeks. GMF is organized by a not for profit corporation and takes place March 7-8 in the unique and picturesque Tampa, FL location of Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park and Kiley Garden.
