Just one comment on the above post: It’s a personal decision, but do be aware that the USB-C to Lightning + to micro-USB as well as the USB-C to USB-A adapters are both out of spec.

Outfitting your travel kit for USB-C
  • There are ways to have at least the C-to-A adapter properly keyed & thus appropriately safe (if not explicitly in-spec, not sure on that), which InCharge did not apply.
  • C-to-micro: only tested-as-safe adapter I’ve heard of is the Innergie I noted above; others have posted that it only works with Innergie chargers, but I used it with my Belkin just fine.
  • C-to-Lightning cannot be in-spec, apparently. However, using a micro-to-Lightning adapter with the Innergie adapter above should work.
