How much does a travel converter cost? - Luggage & Travel

This converter is intended for devices that could care less about the waveform of the "110 volt AC" that they receive, such as items using the current to heat things: irons, hair dryers,...
I would recommend strongly AGAINST using it for "delicate" electronics that really want/expect a clean AC waveform to rectify.
Recommendation: DON'T use it.

Yes. You need a travel converte that will both physically adapt your plugs to the sockets, and convert the socket's voltage to one that is good for your appliances.

An adapter is usually a travel converter that simply allows one kind, size or shape of plug to physically fit the socket.
A voltage converter is a gadget that stands in between the plug and the socket and converts the voltage released by the socket so that the plug and therefore the device itself don't get ruined by the wrong voltage.
These two kinds of converters can be combined and have different converting options, to allow its use in multiple regions.

Check out this link. it shows a comprehensive list of voltage levels for countries worldwide;

Different regions use different voltages, so a travel converter allows you to use your electric devices in a different region by adding a converter plug.

Hello. Typically one does not rewire these devices as the cost is prohibitive. Instead use an international converter travel kit available at places like radio shack, walmart, drug stores. Joe

look for a travel converter or 240v to 110/120v converter usually the adapter will plug into ur outlet and the charger[or whatever] plugs into the adapter and can convert the power down to the lower i have used mine every time i go to europe the adapters cost between 10 and 15 dollars mine is a one piece multi-use 8 different outlet designs- its easier than rewiring the charger

Here is the link where you can fnd several travel voltage converters. http://www.voltage-converter-transformers.com/travel-converters.html
i would get one of the kits that include all countries as the individual converters are almost as expensive and you might take a trip somewhere else in the future.
