Review on ✈️ Conair Polarized Adapter Plug Set - Optimize Your Travel Experience with Travel Smart by Joe Merculief

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A must-have accessory for international travelers

While it may be obvious, this product (pack of 5 polarized Travel Smart adapters) is an adapter set. It will NOT convert external 220V AC to 110V for your device. For voltage conversion, you need an AC transformer, such as B. the step-down voltage converter Simran SMF-200. Do you only need a set of adapters or a voltage converter? Check your device's input requirements to make sure. If it says "Input: 100-240 VAC" then no voltage converters are needed. Chargers for most portable electronics (laptops, cameras, cell phones, tablets, etc.) typically have lightweight switching converters rated for universal voltage. Older units usually come with a heavy duty single voltage AC transformer. Some household appliances, such as a desktop computer, may require a mechanical switch to be flipped to select between 110 VAC input and 220 VAC input. Revain offers several AC adapter plug sets. For example the Lenmar AC5 World Travel Adapter Plug Set. But this particular product has features I like: 1. It comes with a drawstring pouch to keep all the adapter plugs together.2. Each adapter has region and country names printed on it so you can make sure you're taking the correct adapter plugs with you.3. Each adapter accepts a US polarized plug (which means one blade is wider than the other, so the plug can only be inserted one way). Note that you can plug a non-polarized US plug into a polarized US outlet, but not the other way around. . For example, outlets in Japan also have two shaped plugs like the US version, but they are not polarized. So you still need to bring this adapter plug set if your device has a polarized AC plug. Most hotels in other countries provide adapter plugs for international travelers, but often for a ridiculous fee. So just buy this set of forks in advance and be ready for your next ride. It's cheaper than charging the hotel once.
