If you want to charge your iPod or iPhone away from your computer, you'll need a USB power adaptor, and an electrical plug to which you can connect a USB cable like the Macally PowerPal.

For only a tenner, Macally's PowerPal features four interchangeable plug heads, covering UK, Europe, USA and Australia.

It also functions as a universal adaptor, allowing you to insert one type of plug into another type of socket.

It also comes with a USB iPod cable, a spare fuse, and a handy bag to keep everything in one place.
