Baseus Enercore CG11 6-in-1 Universal Travel Adapter can be used worldwide and supports use in over 200 countries and regions, including the US, UK, EU, Australia/NZ, Japan, China and Korea. It can be operated with an input voltage of 125 to 250 volts and delivers between 1,250 and 2,500 watts, depending on the main voltage.
It is equipped with different types of connectors including type A (North America, Japan), Type C (Europe, parts of Africa), Type G (UK, Malaysia, Singapore, Parts of the Middle East) and Type I (Australia, New Zealand, China), which are the most widely used worldwide.
Thanks to its 6-in-1 design, it enables the simultaneous charging of up to six devices that can be connected via two USB-A ports, a USB-C port and an integrated 27-inch (68 cm) USB-C cable.
It also has two AC connectors for standard plugs, making it a real travel adapter. These are distributed over two sides. It is important to know that the adapter is not a voltage converter. It works with tension from 100 to 250 volts, but does not convert tension.
The universal travel adapter also has important security functions, including two integrated fuses that protect against overvoltage and overload. A reserve fuse is also included, so a quick reaction is possible in the event of an error. With its compact dimensions of approx. 2.2 x 2.2 x 3.2 inches (5.1 × 5.5 × 8.2 cm) and a weight of 8.8 oz (250 g), this adapter does not weigh you or troubles the airport’s luggage scales.
Concentrated technology
The plugs disappear elegantly in the house and push out again using a sliding mechanism. This is pretty standard for universal travel adapters, but this one is special thanks to its integrated USB-C cable-so you always have a cable with you that can be a gift when you unpack.
The integrated USB-C cable delivers up to 70W. The individual USB-C2 port delivers up to 60W, while the two USB-A ports together can deliver up to 60W. The gray USB-A1 port alone delivers up to 5W-NOK to charge an Apple Watch or your Airpods case. The maximum output at once is 70W.
After 30 minutes we had charged an iPhone 15 to 50%, an 11-inch iPad Pro to 38%and a MacBook Air M3 to 55%. Note that the universal travel adapter became very hot at high power when the MacBook Air M3 is charged.

Should you buy Baseus Enercore 6-in-1 Universal Travel Adapter?
A charger for all countries means that the many connections have the advantage that you always have the right one wherever you are in the world.
All together they think the travel adapter is larger than each country’s adapter would be, and the sliding mechanism is a bit fiddly, and the plugs are not as stable as conventional designs, but with a universal adapter you get the convenience of keeping a charging device ready for your next trip and it really comes to its own when you visit more than one region.
I have a base in Germany and noticed that the euro plug is slightly thinner than the standard and that there is no VDE certification mark.
Apart from the local number, ENERCORE 6-in-1 Universal Travel Adapter does exactly what you would expect it to do: It charges up to three devices simultaneously and also acts as an adapter for other electrical devices when traveling.
