Customer Reviews

I bought a couple of these adaptors for a recent trip to China and couldn't be happier.
Features:
1. Converts almost any power plug to the Type I plug common in China and Australia. [I believe the only exception is the Type M used in South Africa and a few other exotic locations].
2. Accepts grounded (three prong) and non-grounded (two-prong) plugs.
3. The Type I "male" side of the plug includes the ground connection.
4. Solid construction--very well built.
Some notes if you travel 'abroad':
1. These adaptors will only bridge the physical connection between your power cable and the wall outlet. They do not perform voltage conversion. Before using, make sure that whatever you are plugging in will accommodate the local voltage. The US is 120 Volts 60 Hz --most of the world is 220-240 Volts 50 Hz.
2. Some applicances will require a voltage transformer--which is another product altogether (usually higher wattage devices like hair blowers and soldering irons--but your mileage may vary). Always check the limitations of your devices--the requirements (voltage and frequency) are generally labeled adjacent to the power cord or plug. This is true for laptops, cell phone chargers, electric razors, etc.
3. Always use the 3-prong (grounded connectors). They are safer than the two-prong types and tend to be much better built. I have had the two-prong adaptors disintegrate on me -- leaving the disembodied, bare metal blades stuck in the outlet. Yikes! That's why I love this adapter--very well built.
Happy travels!

This adapter plug has performed flawlessly. I have standard North American plugs, and this adapts them--and others nationalities' plugs--to New Zealand style plugs. The devices I am using (computer, Camera battery charger) are set up to use the 240V current over here, so a 240 to 120V converter is not necessary.
The quality and workmanship of the unit, although not fancy, is top notch and solid. Don't let the low price fool you; this unit is "the bee's knees", as they say.
WELL WORTH THE MONEY!
