1. Choose a combination language translator-currency converter for the ultimate traveler's companion. Although you can find one for little more than $10 dollars, the nicer-and pricier-versions actually talk and can cost in excess of $400 dollars for the high-end models.
2. Find a currency converter that is a calculator as well if you want an extra perk thrown in. Many currency converters have other added benefits built in also, such as the ability to program in the exchange rate of the country you're in. And some come with a key ring for easy portability.
3. Opt for a solar-powered currency converter if you don't care if your converter has any extra frills. Although plain, these models don't use batteries, making one less thing for you to have to haul around with you as you travel.
4. Look for one of the many small models on the market if you're concerned about size. Some currency converters can easily be stowed in a pant pocket, and if you want your device for converting currency alone, this option is perfect for you.
5. Check a couple of consumer-based websites such as Epinions.com to find product descriptions, prices and user ratings on various converters before you buy. A website such as this does the legwork for you, making your job a little easier.
