Accessories & Other Products For GNU / LinuxTake back CTRL of your computing with hardware that works for you rather than against you! 
It's never been more true that you get what you pay for. Going cheap on a USB 3.0 A to C adapter is the quickest way to slow down your device's performance to 2.0 speeds. Not all USB cables and adapters are the same and many inhibit the performance or charging speed as they're not designed for the given use case. You could say corners are cut, even if it's saving mere pennies. We've waded through the garbage spewed online to locate an adapter for our catalog that is better designed than most and will not slow you down.
While we don't advocate the actual killing of penguins or your laptop, The Penguin Killer is a reaction to the dangers of utilizing laptops in public spaces where unforeseen circumstances could threaten your privacy and data. The Penguin Killer is a variation on the USB cord kill concept. It's a USB cord or cable with a novelty penguin carabiner attached that physically connects to your belt loop or pants pocket and in the event your laptop is snatched a magnetic component connected to the other end snaps triggering a near instantaneous shutdown. So long as your laptop is encrypted the thief won't have access to your data.
Check out the demonstration video! Check out The Penguin Killer Documentation! No USB-C port? No problem. Pick up an optional adapter below to use with a traditional USB-A port.

Shield your most important travel document from the unscrupulous, as well as the growing threat of RFID-based identity impersonators. All U.S. passports issued since August 2007 include an RFID (radio frequency identification) chip. This e-chip provides fast, easy access to all your vital statistics when scanned by border control. Unfortunately, scammers and identity impersonators with the right equipment can get at your personal data just as easily. This rugged passport cover—with its special RFID blocking aluminum lining—prevents your passport from being read when closed. A must for today’s long lines at airport check-ins and border crossings.
