Will this work in Italy for iPad 4 and iPhone 4S? Do I need a converter and/or surge protector in addition?

yes, it will work with your ipad 4 and iphone 4S. No you don't need anything else. :) Have a great trip!

I happen to be in Italy and it works fine on the iPhone 4, the Ipad, and the IPhone 5s. I assume it will work properly for you too. Be sure to take a plug converter with you to plug the wall charger into the wall. No need for any other equipment.

Yes, it will work with iPhones and iPad. However, there are cheaper solutions. The charger you received from Apple or any of dozens of other chargers will work on both 110 and 220 volt outlets. All you need is a cheap adapter to allow your US adapter to plug into an Italian wwll socket. Another option si to purchase a charger after you arrive in Italy. Those adapters are available in many places.

My EZO wall charger is used with my iPhone 4s, iPad 2, iPad Mini and iPad Air, so there should be no problem with iPad 4. No need for a converter as it can be used with 110/220 volts. I have used my charger for over 2 years now without needing a surge protector.

From my understanding they would automatically convert the voltage based on the region - this is the main reason I purchased them, on trip we took to Egypt one of the ladies on the tour had these and she had no complaints or problems, I actually borrowed hers to charge my iphone while we were there and had no problems, she was using them to charge both her iphone and iPad.

Yes. I used only the plug adapter in Italy. Most electronics do the automatic converting nowadays.

Yes, as long as you have the adapter for the Italian outlet. I am very happy with my power strip. Taking it to South America with me.

my entire home entertainment system only required 1500 watts and that included a 55 inch flat screen TV, etc, etc. The iPad I think only draws 12 watts. I am certain the iPad charger is multi region and you can either buy Apples adapter set which convert for most global plugs, or just get a plug adapter that will fit whatever type outlet in Australia. No need for a power converter, just a plug adapter. Available on Amazon, and perhaps at the Australia airport. I lived in SE Asia for three years, traveled the region extensively, and now live in the USA. No issues with our 2 iPads, or iPod, or iPhones. Hope this helps.

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.

It worked great in France. You may need a plug adapter. I am taking it to Italy next week.

I u sed it in Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg and it worked well. Haven't tried it in Italy and Portugal - check the one of the websites for which plugs work in each country.

All it does is allow you to use your USA pronged cords in the Italian outlets. It does not convert from 220 to 110 ~ btw, most modern phones,shavers, hair dryers etc convert themselves.

Italy's power is 220V, so you will need to use a 110 to 220V power adapter before you plug it in, and don't forget that there is no standard socket in Europe and they can vary from lean Italian to sturdy German and French to absolutely ridiculous UK plugs and sockets, so you will need an adapter too.

comes with a cut down on the plug cable says input 100v - 240v output 18 so I think it would be ok not sure about i pad 3 my daughter used her i pad on it while she was staying with us and I have seen all kind of adapters for various ipads etc on Amazon and e-bay, hope this is helpful, happy listening.

Yes. Just use the slider to pick the right "prongs" for the country that you are in, then plug in your USB devices into the two ports. I used it just this way while I was in Europe. Better yet, now that I'm back in the USA, I simply use the US Prongs and I'm still using it to charge my iPhone and iPad every night.

This power strip has a 3-prong plug. To use it in Italy I purchased an adapter with 2-prong plug and it worked beautifully.

We used this converter last year in Paris & Stockholm and had no issue with our iPhone and iPad. My kid used it this year in France and it worked. No idea as to whether Israel would be a different matter.

Hi Miranda - they said it was "European" and worked in Italy - it didn't. The prongs were not far enough apart. I did have a friend who loaned me a power strip which also had two USB ports for phone charging - that is the way to go

I used mine in Italy for 4 months and it worked perfectly. You will still need an adapter because it has a US plug but I didn't use a transformer or converter or anything
