Are you looking to take some cool tech pieces with you on your next trip out of LA? If so, we’ve handpicked five of the best travel tech items for Lax Filers. Check them out.
1. goTenna Mesh
The goTenna mesh is an off-grid communication device that enables you to get in touch with friends when there’s no mobile or wi-fi service available – ideal for when you’re exploring remote spots.
You can send secure messages and share your location (through the goTenna mobile app) with people within a four mile radius. Or if your group invests in multiple sets of devices, you can create an even wider network of creativity.
2. Skyroam Solis X
If you’re worried about patchy internet access, the Skyroam Solis is just what you need. It’s a Wi-Fi hotspot that fits in your pocket, so you can take the internet wherever you go.
It’s got loads of cool additional features too – like an 8MP remote camera, a built-in power bank and an integrated smart assistant. This Skyroam Solis article on Lonely Planet has more useful info on the fab specs of the device.
3. Tablet
A tablet is a terrific piece of tech for any traveler because of its marvelous multi-functionality. You can use it to watch films, listen to music and play games, all of which will keep you entertained during your flight and downtime.
It’s also ideal for storing travel apps, which are something no traveler should be without. There’s an app for just about everything – this travel apps article on The Oprah Magazine lists the best.
4. Filter water bottle
If you’re travelling to places where the water is unsafe or where there’ll be limited drinking water, a filter water bottle will be your best friend.
They remove harmful bacteria and viruses from water, so you can drink water from anywhere in the world and stay hydrated in almost any situation, plus they also remove chemicals so you can enjoy better tasting water.
If this sounds good, water filter specialists LifeStraw stock a range of high-quality filter water bottle products.
5. External hard drive
External hard drives usually come with a lot of storage space, often in the terabytes. This makes them super useful for you traveler photographers and vloggers storing your endless stream of pics and video footage.
It’s also ideal for storing large media files such as films, which might slow down or take up too much space on your tablet. And most importantly, it enables you to backup any important files.
Travelling with travel tech
Tech doesn’t come cheap, so you need to take measures to protect it. You can start by avoiding crowded public transport where your travel treasures could easily get damaged and driving instead – you’ll find LAX Airport parking deals on Looking 4.com.
And marking your checked bags as fragile is wise, as this should ensure that they’re handled with extra care.
Here’s to a tech-tastic trip!
