Portable surge cube for travellers

The Tripp Lite TravelCube is a single-outlet surge protector that plugs directly into a 120 V AC wall receptacle. It supplies one NEMA 5-15R outlet rated for 15 A and 1800 W, making it suitable for a laptop charger or similar device on the move.

Joule rating and clamping define the safety margin

The unit absorbs up to 1080 joules and clamps at 150 V RMS, so it handles moderate spikes but cannot protect against sustained over-voltage or very high-energy transients. EMI and RFI filtering reaches 20 dB across 50/60 Hz, and the built-in diagnostic LED confirms protection is still active.

Cube format trades bulk for a fixed outlet count

The white plastic housing measures 3.07 by 2.16 by 1.49 inches and weighs 0.17 lb, so it fits in a bag but blocks the adjacent socket on a standard duplex receptacle. A six-foot telephone cord is included for modem or fax line protection, while the 15 A circuit breaker resets after an overload. Buyers needing multiple outlets or a detachable cord should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How do I decide between the 750-joule and 1080-joule ratings shown for this cube?

The 1080-joule figure is the AC suppression rating used for this model; the 750-joule value appears in an alternate highlight and does not apply to the unit you receive.

What does the 1080-joule rating actually protect in a wall outlet?

It absorbs up to 1080 joules of surge energy across all three modes — line-to-neutral, neutral-to-ground and line-to-ground — before the diagnostic LED shows protection is exhausted.

What does the NEMA 5-15P plug and 15-amp rating limit in practice?

The direct plug-in NEMA 5-15P connects to a standard 120 V receptacle and the 15-amp breaker caps total draw at 1800 watts for the single NEMA 5-15R outlet.
