Questions

What's the difference between an adapter and a converter?

A plug adapter only changes the plug shape. A voltage converter changes the electricity (e.g. 230 V to 120 V) and is needed only for single-voltage appliances. Most phone and laptop chargers are dual-voltage (100–240 V) and need only an adapter.

Are my phone and laptop chargers safe abroad?

Almost always — modern chargers accept 100–240 V, so worldwide they need only a plug adapter. Check the small print printed on the charger to confirm.

How accurate is this?
