Bring Car Phone Chargers for Every Passenger

The Problem

One car charger, four passengers. Fights over who charges next.

The Hack

Buy a multi-port car charger ($12-15) or bring one cable per person. Ensure everyone's phone stays charged throughout the trip.

Why It Works

Navigation, music, entertainment, and communication all require charged phones. A dead phone means a lost navigator, bored kids, and no ability to call for help in emergencies.

Pro Tips

  • Multi-port USB car charger: $10-15 at Amazon
  • Bring cables for every device
  • Backseat passengers need long cables (6 feet)
  • Also bring a portable battery pack as backup
