Travel gear: Wireless speakers, USB hubs and fold-away grills

UE Roll Wireless Bluetooth Speaker
Another design take on portable wireless audio here from Logitech, with its UE Roll speaker. The saucer-flat shape makes for easy last-minute packing and the rest of the design has some thoughtful touches for the outdoors life. The IPX7-rating means it can be submerged in up to a metre for 30 minutes – in effect, that's very waterproofed for most uses. In an array of patterns. €129 from ultimateears.com

Portable USB Hub
With all the mobile devices that recharge by USB, it can be useful to travel with a mini-hub that might save you on having to bring individual adapters for each gadget. This is quite a neat four-in-one, with USB 2.0 ports on three sides and an integrated connector which folds back into the body. In a range of colours, it's not much more than an inch square (5cm x 6cm x 2cm). €8 from designist.ie

Esbit Fold-Away Charcoal Grill
There might weather for an impromptu BBQ picnic this Easter. Here's a step up from the disposable hibachi: a fold-away steel BBQ which comes in its own waterproof carry-case. The sides simply fold up to carry a three-height adjustable grilling grate, while your charcoal can be stored in the unit itself. It folds away neatly to just 23x 30cm. €80 from outdoorsports.ie
