Travel Technology - Really confused by Igo products...

I’m looking at getting a new power adapter for flying, as I am still using an old United purchased power adaptor from 5 years ago, that doesn't even work with one of my newer laptops.

So, My problem is, I went to the igo website, and typed in that I am looking for power adapter for a laptop Toshiba Portage R100 for both air, auto, and wall, and it came up with this information that I need to purchase:

- Igo Juice Universal wall/auto/air notebook power adapter for 119.99
- Notebook charging tip 6 for juice, ice and powerxtender for 9.99
- Igo Everywhere Power 7500 Series Universal Wall/Auto/Air Notebook Power Adapter with DuelPower for 139.99

Do I really need to purchase all three of these to use the product on both an airplane and a hotel? Or are they just recommending all of these products and I can purchase either the Igo Juice Universal or the Igo Everywhere Power 7500. If so, which of the two is better? Please advise. Thanks.

It should come with the tip you need. The tips come up in the search if you already have the adaptor but need the tip.

You have to decide between one of the two adaptors. Juice or the other one.

One note of advice. Shop around on pricegrabber.com and froogle.com before buying. I ended up getting mine for $69.00 by doing this.

You just need the Igo Juice adapter. Make sure it comes with the tip that charges your laptop. Shouldn't need to purchase a separate tip. It comes with most computer tips.

I thought I said that. :)

Also note that the Kensington is the EXACT same unit in disguise. Bought a Kensington at CompUSA to have it the same day.

Wish they had the retractable cords then :(
