Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my trip to South Korea and it worked flawlessly. I highly recommend it!Customer Review: Great little EuroPlug
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great little EuroPlug. It takes up very little space in my bag, compared with some of the other more bulky models. This will work fine in many nations, but not the UK. I've used it in Spain, myself. Also not that this JUST allows your device to "fit into the wall". It does NOT adjust the voltage from Europe's 240 to USA's 120. For most electronics, this is just fine, but read your adapter to make sure it can handle 240! I used it on my laptop, iphone and digital camera, without issue. Don't try something like a hairdryer though!Customer Review: Great little adapter for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
I just returned from Germany and this little adapter was the most effective little thing. Although it is not universal to the entire planet, it fits snugly into the EU recepticals and leaves room for others if you happen to be using a power strip. Some of my travel companions had the big box adapters that required us to strategically place our plugs so one didn't block the others. Those of us that had these were the "easy" ones to work around because they didn't stick up, plus they fit nice and tight. The reason this is important is because outlets in EU aren't like in the states, they do not have outlets on every wall, in addition there isn't abundant space so 4 of us shared one compact conference room. I took one of these and one of the box adapters that had a USB outlet and this one worked best for our environment.Customer Review: Great product
Summary: 5 Stars
This is what I learned about european adapters...
We traveled to Berlin, Germany and I had heard mixed things about voltage converters and adapters and what you needed for European travel. I bought these converters as well as a voltage adapter (SIMRAN 200 WATTS STEP DOWN CONVERTER MODEL SMF-200 FOR TRAVELLING OVERSEAS). The converters were perfect because the outlets in all the houses in Berlin were circular and these were a perfect fit. I also discovered (through a lot of research) that most electronics (DVD players, PSP, etc...) have adapters built in to the power cords and if the adapter reads 100 - 240v, than it can be used in Europe with just the converter (no need for the voltage adapter). We brought a dvd player, a PSP, a video camera and a gameboy DS. The only item that required the voltage adapter was the DS. I am not even sure I needed it, but I didn't want to fry it either so I used it to be safe. Hope this helps! This was the information I was desperately searching for before our trip.
