If you want the smallest iPhone and iPad travel charger possible, and you don’t want to fool with cables, then the TravelBuddy is going to be your perfect solution. This compact wall charger makes it possible for you to plug-in anywhere and charge your iOS device. For as little as $30 you can get in on this Kickstarter project.

The makers of TravelBuddy have already made it through one successful Kickstarter charging product, and they will be producing it in an Apple-Certified Chinese factory. Apple has already approved their initial design, so you can back this product with confidence — it’s not some fly-by-night product that may or may not work with your iPhone.

Go Design is expecting to ship the iOS TravelBuddy in mid-January, and there will be a European version as well as one for the US. There is also an integrated USB port if you need to charge an additional device (with a cable, of course).

You can make your TravelBuddy Kickstarter pledge here.
