Does it work for 3 prong items? i.e. my laptop has a 3 prong charger)

Yes the charger can work with 3 prong items. I did not use it for a laptop, just mainly my iphone & ipad. It does have 1-2 spots for 3 prongs.

Yes. Two of the three available plugs accept American 3-prong plugs. Mine worked perfectly in London.

I bought this for my travels to London. It "fried" the first time I plugged it in. I was afraid one would cost too much there but my friend found a stand at a mall that sold her a set for under $20.00. Also I found all my hotels had adapters that I could borrow during my stay.

I purchased two to take with us to Soth Africa and Botswana.I gave one to my wife and kept one. On the flight tp South Africa mine leaked a black oily substance onto my clothres in my checked bag. On the flight back it leaked a white viscus gel. Wiser by my firest experience I placed it in a plastic bag to protect my clothes.My wife had no problem with heres. That may be because se kept hers with his in her carry-on bag. Both worked and I'd have no reservations about buying one unless you plan to fly with it.

If you are talking about the version of the adapter that works in Australia/New Zealand the answer is Yes. The device has the three prongs that match with outlets in New Zealand and Australia. If you look closely at the picture, you will see that it has three holes that match the US plugs with three prongs. And I think two if not all three outlets on this device can accept 3 prong plugs. Just remember that this is not a converter and it won't work for US devices like hair dryers that only use 110 volts. It should work with your computer.

I don't have a seperate charger for mine, I just use the laptop to charge the battery. I don't know if they make a seperate charger just for the battery.

I don't know, I use it with items plugged into all 3 regular outlets, but not with the USB plugs in use. It should work OK, it's made to be used that way.

It is a three prong socket.. if your small cord is a two prongt it would defeat the ground part (the grounding is the bottom hole in the socket) it might blow the circuit.. not sure.... depends on what you are using the extension cord for and how much draw there is on it. I would suggest you either get a three prong adapter or a three prong cord... and play it safe

I use this for my laptop, it has the three prongs so I don't see why not. Just keep in mind it is not a surge protector, so if there is a power surge there is the potential for damage to your laptop (i.e. don't leave it plugged in during an electric storm).

Hi, Jakia this adpater works very well converting a 3 prong plug to a 2 prong. I use it to convert my 3 prong plug laptop power plug to 2 prong and for other appliances. You should have no problem with the AXIS 45086 3-Prong to 2-Prong Electrical Adapter. God Bless!

Yes, it does. Tanya D. You need an 3 prong outlet or adapter piece.. Someone else also posted in their review questions, don't have too many appliances going that pull a lot of current while using it. It has blown a fuse when too many things are going. As it did with me.. But, outside of that, its very useful.

No because the cable needs a third connector that provides power. The third connector is a USB connector that plugs into a laptop, for instance.

The unit I ordered and received did have a 3-prong plug. Mine came from "Best Price Power Adapter"; the current vendor appears to be LinkPC.

Yes the adapter came with a 3-pin plug. Did not last long as the third grounding pin broke off and remained stuck in the wall outlet. The charging rate has not been affected. The original charger that came with the computer had a 2-pin cord.

No problem. I'm not sure, but I seem to remember it may require a 3 prong extension cord.

I'm not sure but I do know I wouldn't recommend this item. Charging takes a lot longer than just plugging into a computer and the prongs don't fit in the electrical socket snugly. I had to prop something against it to keep it pushed into the outlet.

Yes. I have this adaptor plugged into top receptacle. And, regular laptop 3-pronged power supply connected to lower plug. Though I did not find an issue yet, some poorly designed flat 3-prong plus may not fit in.

It's a short plug, sort of. And it has three prongs. Does that answer your question??

It was for my daughter's laptop. The cables (3 total) would work for a few weeks (one worked for a few months) then would stop. She finally had to bring the laptop to a computer repair shop.

I am using this for my mobile charger. But also charged my laptop once with this. I frequently am using the Universal adapter for my laptop.

3-pronged, it is. Be careful if you're using an adapter, though since not all of them are compatible.
