Not all plugs are created equal
Geeks are required to travel from time to time, often to distant and exotic lands. One never knows what sort of power situation one will encounter when one arrives at one's hotel.
Will your laptop's power cable fit in the outlet? Maybe, but maybe not. Maybe you're going to London today, only to head off to Prague tomorrow? If you are, then a: you're a lucky geek indeed, and b: you had better be prepared to deal with multiple outlet sockets. See, the US, Britain, Europe and Asia just can't seem to agree on power distribution standards. Due to internationalization, a lot of gadgets can handle the voltage and cycle differences, but that physical plug is still a barrier.
Worry no more, 'cause this power adapter lets you plug your device into four different kinds of outlets - British, European, Japanese, and Australasia. Check out the complete country list below to know just how good we are. Yeah, I know. We're impressive - we try to not let it go to our heads.
This adapter will not modify the voltage, phase, or amperage of these bizarre wall sockets, so make sure your gadgets can handle the power, first!
