2. Optional Devices
External Battery (Power Bank). Using a phone or tablet to navigate a city drains its battery faster than usual. It is therefore recommended to have an external battery at hand, just in case.

Charging Plug and Cable. If no external battery is available, make sure to carry a charging plug. In a time of need, you may simply stop by a cafe to recharge your battery while enjoying a cup of coffee.
