#2 ASUS ZenScreen USB Type-C Portable Eye Care Monitor
When I am in my office, I have a workflow that is based around multiple monitors. If I’m traveling (for business or for leisure) I really miss that functionality. Having another screen such as the ASUS ZenScreen makes me almost as productive on the road as when I’m home. It is light, thin, and fits easily into a backpack or briefcase.

#3 Anker PowerCore 20100 Power Bank
Business travelers need to make sure their devices don’t run out of power while they are on the road. A powerful, portable battery charger can make all the difference! I recommend the Anker PowerCore 20100. It’s got a huge capacity, and you can use it to charge your phone, tablet and more. Plus, it’s tiny, only weighing in at 12.5 oz.
