also handy and discrete enough that I've walked away from the car (more than once) without it! (best place for it, on a cable!)

cheap and nasty wanna be leathermans cost a few quid, they're crap but less troublesome when lost or broken (YMMV)

I've used the usb socket and a cable, it just works (tm) if it fails, try a new usb cable and it's all good.

really useful things to have! (typically right until they're found by TSA and confiscated) (cheaper smaller clones of the multi tool are better, less bothersome when taken and do the job)

it's also really important to call up the 24x7 helpline number on a charger if it's not working properly. they can often reboot remotely or sometimes start the charging remote, if nobody reports chargers that have failed they never get fixed or rebooted. I've had a lot of flail with a lot of the...

no (I've confirmed this now multiple times by using them and they're empty), it's a crappy cost saving (imho)
