The Flipit!'s power tab slips between a power outlet and a plug to charge a USB device.

The Touch-n-Go multi-charger does its best to make charging a whole mess of devices convenient, but it’s got nothin’ on the simplicity of the Flipit! USB charger. You won’t be able to charge a dozen devices with the Flipit!, but at $15.99 it’s a clever and unobtrusive way to charge any USB device.

Once you plug another device into the outlet (and through the power tab) you’re sneakily powering the Flipit!’s USB charger along with whatever else you’re powering. When you’ve just gotta charge that iPhone or Kindle in a busy setting, Flipit! can do the job without taking up an outlet.
