If you have a device that charges through a USB connection, you no doubt already have an AC charger for it.
But it might be nice to have a backup. One you can leave in the garage, or at the office, or in your totally-not-scary cabin in the woods. This week’s DOTW fits the bill nicely: Sturdy, compact, with a nifty collapsible AC plug that folds into the charger’s body.
Also, it comes in a Zune box. So, you know, nostalgia.
But its external packaging in no way affects the performance of the device within. This charger is world-ready, able to adapt on the fly to voltages from 100 to 240, and cycles from 47 to 63 Hertz. And it pumps out a respectable 5 volts / 1 ampere of juice.

As the ancient proverb goes: It is better to plug a single LED light into a USB port than to curse the darkness.
Stop cursing that darkness already. Next time you find yourself on the red-eye in need of better illumination for your workspace than that which the puny overhead airline light can provide, this is your solution.
Five well-directed LEDs flood your tray table and notebook with pleasing white light – without waking passengers on either side. You can also use it at your desk, when wanting low-key, indirect lighting while you’re gaming or the like. And if you need to re-connect cables in the back of your desktop PC, slip this light into one of the USB ports on it case – and bam! All the light you need to see what you’re doing back there. To summarize: Its flexible eight-inch stalk offers precise directing of light where you need it, when you need it.
You don’t have to worry about batteries, AC adapters, or electrical outlets. Find an open USB port, and you are in business. For less than 10 bucks, it’ll be hard to find a more useful, affordable, portable light. But that’s all we’re charging for this week’s DOTW.

Sometimes, it all comes down to the simplest thing.
You’re frustrated because you keep forgetting or misplacing that Lightning cable that came with your iPhone (or iPad, iPod touch – whatever). And when you’re frustrated, you’re not being all that you can be. When you’re not being all that you can be, you’re not living up to your fullest potential.
Frustration can be so darned…frustrating.
Enter the aforementioned ‘simplest thing’: Another 8-pin Lightning cable to supplement the original. Like warm waves on a tropical beach, relief washes over you, lifts you up, bathes you in soothing vibes, in rippling concentric circles of improved productivity.
And making this ‘simplest thing’ all the more simple, we’re letting it go for less than three bucks. That’s the healing power of the Deal of the Week.
