I did not take a laptop when I went to Italy but used it with my kindle and my phone.

Read the reviews. I should have before I purchased and landed in Europe with a converter that did not last longer than 24 hours. It blew with my blow dryer. Cut the circuit in the room and smelled like burning plastic. I might trust it to charge a cell phone but I wouldn't plug my computer in to it.

I am sure that it will be okay, I used it for my Kindle and phone, someone else used it on their tablet. It is a little difficult to use the extra plug on the converter, I supported the weight by stacking something under it, ( like a rolled up towel on the counter under the outlet. Enjoy your trip.

Well, it's probably acceptable, but again, it seems of very poor quality, and it's confusing which one works where within the set they give you. Since I found decent ones in KMart I will never go back to ordering these online again.

It blew up on me at the b&b; where we were staying in England. Not sure if I had a defective one or if it is just a bad product. By the time I got back from my trip, it was too late to exchange it. I would get one in london where you can talk with the shop owner about which one is best. They have them all over in the shops there and I wished I had done that instead of buying before I went.

You would have to buy a power converter to make it compatible with the outlets in the UK. Thank you for shopping with DGS Novelties!

Sorry, I can't check this out. The converter is 700 miles from me for 2 more months.

Most all chargers (e.g. for cell phone, camera, laptop) can handle 100-240V and only an adapter is needed -converter won't hurt though. If the devices says nothing, chances are good it can't handle 240 V and you have to have a converter. You'll damage the device otherwise. The converter needs to be able to handle the Watts of the device

Not unless you have a converter/adapter. You can buy a converter/adapter at most any store that sells electronics/hardware. Not expensive and a must have if you take ANY plug in device to Europe.

I'm not sure, but I'd be careful. The UK also has different a voltage. It can support ipads, smartphones, and laptops with no problems. But if you're thinking about plugging in a hairdryer or straightener, you're better off finding one on amazon (or over at the UK) that is designed to handle the higher voltage.

With the use of an adapter it should be fine. When traveling abroad I always have adapters to convert other countries power source.

did you get this issue resolved? I cant make it work in London , thinking of buying a power converter , but not sure it will work ?

Mine came with an adapter for plugging into other electrical outlets than the U.S. standards, so I am assuming it will be ok in UK. I have not tried it to verify though.

I'm not really sure, but we used these adapters while in Seville, Spain for our Iphones, Kindle and Acer laptop. No problems at all. Our daughter also used these during her semester abroad there without incident.

Yes, I have used this for all of my electronic devices in the UK and they have all worked after being plugged in through this adapter.

This is not a converter. Its just a plug. Your devices should be capable to work on both 110-220V.

You need a type C adapter for Spain and type G for London and the UK. Remember that these are only adapters to change the plug and they will not alter the voltage or frequency of the current. Make sure your device is rated for 220 or 240 volts and 50Hz before plugging it in. If your device isn't rated for the higher voltage, be sure to purchase a power converter.

Charger is certainly capable with 220V and 50 cycle so that should not be a problem. Your computer should have USB as well.

I used mine in Italy with no problems. I imagine it can be used in London as well as long as you have the electrical converter that adapts there.

Agreed with cav949. If you get a 240v USB travel adapter, you should be fine.

Yes. I have my converter connected from a laptop to a tv through the component input.Hope it works fine for you.
