Most travel accessories are designed by people who don't travel that much.
You can tell. The adapters are bulky. The cables tangle. The pouches don't fit the way a bag actually packs. And every trip, you end up doing the same ritual — hunting around the room before checkout, making sure you haven't left a charger behind the desk or an adapter plugged into the wall.
I built PackMode because I got tired of it.
Where This Started
I travel regularly between London, Istanbul, and Beirut — sometimes for work, sometimes not. Different countries, different sockets, different hotel rooms. Over time I realised I was carrying more charging kit than anything else. A universal adapter that barely fit in the bag. Three different cables for three different devices. A laptop charger that took up half the space in my personal item.
And every time I landed somewhere new, the same question: did I bring the right adapter for this country? Is this one going to work with a two-pin socket? Where did I put the cable?
I work in sales. I move fast. I don't have time to think about cables.
The Problem With What Was Available
I looked at what was out there. Most of it fell into one of two camps: cheap and unreliable, or expensive and still badly designed. Bulky adapters with proprietary cables. Pouches with pockets in the wrong places. Products that looked fine in a product photo but didn't actually work the way you travel.
Nothing was built as a system. Everything was designed to be sold individually, not used together.
What PackMode Is
PackMode is a small range of travel tech accessories built to work together and pack into carry-on only. Every product has been personally tested on real trips before it goes anywhere near the store.
The hero product is the PACK 70 — a 70W GaN universal travel adapter that replaces your laptop charger, phone charger, and travel adapter in one. It works in over 150 countries and fits in your palm. Alongside it: a 3-in-1 wireless charger, a 100W retractable USB-C cable, a travel tech pouch, and a laptop sleeve — each designed to fit with the others.
The goal is simple. Leave home with less. Arrive with everything you need.
How We Work
PackMode is a small, independent brand based in the UK. We hold stock, ship fast, and deal with any issues ourselves — no third-party customer service, no automated responses. If something goes wrong, you'll hear from a real person.
We're not trying to be the biggest travel accessories brand. We're trying to be the one frequent travellers actually trust.
