FriendFeed I have a question maybe someone can help me out with: In a few weeks I am doing some international travel. I have a few items that will be in need of charging while I am abroad, and they all have AC adapters that have an input of 100v-240v ~50-60Hz, 2.0A. All I need are the plug adapters, right?

Voting Question: Converter or adapter for international travel?
I will be going to Thailand next month. I was wondering if I need an international converter plug or just an adapter? I will be needing it for my hair straightener as well as to charge my phone, ipod, & camera. From what I've been reading, it seems like i need a different type for my electronics and for my hair straightener. Is there one that I can use for both or do I need 2 separate types? read more...

International plug adaptors are the perfect solution to this common travel problem. There are various kits available for different areas of the world.

Some prefer to simply buy one or two plug adapters for their journeys while others opt for whole kits that offer more options. The choice depends primarily on how much travel you expect to take.

Perhaps the best buy is the world plug adaptor kit that offers everything travelers need for modification anywhere in the world. These collections are a bit more expensive but well worth the investment if you plan to travel frequently and to many different regions of the world.

Most of these products come with durable travel pouches making transportation a breeze. These items can be kept safe and well organized no matter how many miles they endure. The travel pouches are typically included in most purchases, especially if you are opting for the world socket adaptor kit.

Travelers can rest assure that they can recharge their electronic devices and that they can use some of the amenities from home using these handy products.
