Finding the right charger isn’t just buying a cable that fits your phone. You also have to find the right place for that plug to go. Whether it’s a wall plug for fast charging, a car charger that keeps your tunes or apps running, or an adapter that can power multiple devices at once, your charger has a lot of big jobs.

Cars play a key role in how we use our digital devices, like providing the perfect way for listening music, convenient ways to take hands free calls, and keeping our phones charged up. There’s still more that can be done though, and we’ve rounded up the car charging stations to prove it.

The whole point of rustic camping or any outdoor adventure is to unplug from the world. But your iPhone and all its apps are so darn useful to your active lifestyle, your idea of rustic still needs a place to recharge the battery.

The accessories company Satechi has built the International Space Station of power strips.
