Does anyone know if cruise ships have a 3 prong plug, or only 2? I would prefer not to have to buy an adapter.

I would contact the cruise line, that would be the ONLY way to know for sure...

It will work with 2 & 3 prong plugs, such as a power cord for a computer (these are usually 3-prong) and it will work with iPhone chargers, and other chargers such as blue tooth. What it will NOT accept are 2-prong, polarized plugs (where one of the prongs is wider than the other). However, to use a polarized plug in the power strip, you would first plug in a UK or European adapter into the power strip and then plug your polarized plug into the adapter....that works fine. We did that on a trip to UK and France...we took 3 or 4 adapters with us. This power strip came in very handy to charge multiple devices as we often found that some hotel rooms had few available outlets. Also, you will need one UK or European adapter to plug in the 3-prong cord for this adapter.

Hi Sheena: Jeffrey beat me to it. The only caution you want to take is to not treat this a 4 ports each capable of 15 Amps.With best regards

I don't think I've ever seen a charger that has two prongs. Assuming you are talking about the end that goes into the light, it's single. Mine old one stopped charging, but I think it was electrical storm/power surge related. So, I bought another one. Great light.

No, I own three by two different comanies and they all have two prongs. You can buy a three prong adapter if you want to but most electrical outlets are grounded anyway.

Yes, the Cobra cxt145 is a good choice for use on a cruise ship. If there is only 2 of you, you don't need it because you'll be doing things together. But if you are more than one couple, get one radio per couple and you won't waste time looking for each other. The radios travel through several decks alright, but not 100% communication.

Im sorry but I dont know what 2.1 A or 1A port is,lol I can say this. We have Iphones and it charges those.It also charges my gf I pad and the kindle fires the kids have and my e pad. It does not charge my Play station 3 controllers. I ended up buying another one after my 1st purchase so we now have two.One for the bedroom and one for the family room.I think its a great item to charge multiple things with one plug in instead of having outlets through out the house charging phones ect.

I'm looking for the same thing. Did you find an adapter with 2 prongs the same size?

as far as i know, i have twelve volts on my boat, i would assume it is the same for a portable, look at the specs in the manual it is usually there. if not call hummingbird customer service. They should have technicians on hand that can assist you.

I went to Rome, Florence, and Venice in April. Before I went I bought the 3 prong adapter that plugs into the hotel wall socket. I also bought a step down converter that has 2 prongs; it plugs into the adapter. Therefore I could power my devices with US standards. I think the adapter is designed for different configurations depending on your need. Just buy them so you can enjoy your trip with no hassle.

I am not an expert on this. But my kids who travel internationally said I shouldn't need a converter in Paris so I just bought the adapters. The pkg of 6 was all we needed for my husband and I to plug in all our phones, ipads, laptops, etc. We stayed at Marriott hotels that provide electronic panels for lots of adapters. Happy Travels!

I think it's restricted to 2.4 amps per port, however, this should not be an issue, no device that charges using USB pulls 4 amps

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.

US plug only...but dual voltage 110 or 220V AC. The other end is a 5.5mm dc plug.There is no UK 3-prong plug adaptor. You can get it at discount stores for $1 each.

No not without an adapter plug. They make those for travelers and the least expensive is the stand alone ones and they also work better than the 3-5 in ones that are often sold to travelers for more money but are difficult to keep plugged into some wall outlets. If I took this to NZ I'd only use it with an adapter. Also you might want to consider a surge protection device so that would be a two adapter system. Hope that helps but I think the item stated it was 110 and 12volt car adaption. Good luck.

Yes it does accepts 3 prongs and is able to connect with 2 prongs... I had to use it during my recent trip to Europe.
