I was wondering if this adapter can accept Australian 3-prong or only Australian 2-prong input. I know the early versions only worked for 2-prong.

Hi Vanessa,Just bought from Amazon 2 more Skross3 adaptors and they definately take the 3-prong Aussie inputs.I also just checked with the Aussie 3-prong double adaptor.All fine Regards,Barbara

It has a two prong plug like we use in the U.S. marked 125V and a larger two prong plug with rounded prongs which is marked 125V/250V. Looking at the Amazon adaptors for Australia these two do not look like ones used in Australia.

It will accept plug type from USA, Canada, China, Australia, Japan, Nepal, Hong Kong and every other country you can think of EXCEPT the plug from S. Africa. The Universal input socket is not designed to accept plug from S. Africa. However, this adapter is designed to plug in to S. African Type M socket. Simple!

I believe any two prong plug will work in a 3 prong receptor, just not the other way around, i.e., a three prong plug will obviously not work in a 2 prong receptor. The third prong is merely a ground. So it's up to you if you feel it's safe.

I'm not familiar with Australian standards, but the receiver can handle up to 240 Volts, so it's compatible with US and European standards. Hope that helps...

It is a 2-prong plug, 120 volt, 60Hz; made for the US standard. Australia is on 220-240 volts, sorry.

The adaptor comes with a European adaptor; not an Australian adaptor. It worked great for us in Australia with a standard wall adaptor though.

It specifies the voltage range of 100-240 V with an input frequency of 50-60 Hz. So looking online it says Australia uses 230 V at 50 Hz so should be good to go with this power adapter. You wont need a converter of any kind.

The plug would be american you may need an adaptor for Australian outlets as I imagine they may not be the same.

It does not accept Australian style plug. You will need adapter plug for it.

Sorry I live in Australia and had to buy a universal power adaptor... works perfectly with that.

I'm actually in Singapore, so my plug is different. Australia uses the "canted" plug such as there: http://www.amazon.com/Tmvel-Universal-Australia-Travel-Adapter/dp/B00BSD8U8W .. but the idea is the same. .. You might just get some of these, for everything else that's "US", that can just plug in with a straight adapter. Many small chargers can accept the higher Australian voltages with no problem. This unit does comes with an adapter that has two round pins. Use this adapter WITH the Australian adapter! One little "gotcha" that I found, is that using the adapter with the three prongs will short out the unit and blow the fuse! By using the two pin adapter in the setup, you effectively bypass the third (ground) plug, and you're good to go! Modern US (flat screen) computer monitors and flat screen TVs work great with this unit. I have seen nothing the suggests that there is any after effect of the difference between the US "60hz" and the rest of the world's "50 hz". You should have no problems! Enjoy!

I was travelling with a group of friends, some of whom who had 2-prong adapters, and they worked at the places we stayed. I had a 3-prong adapter that worked everywhere I stayed in Italy. I think the answer to your question is yes.

It takes a USA 3 prong plug no problem, although the 3rd ground pin isn't carried through. It has worked for me in Europe with no issues, and appears it will work well in other parts of the world fine too.

It comes with the USA two flat prong adapter. I do not know what the Australian adapter looks like. If it similar to the two prong European adapter then it does. Of course the 12vdc works universally which is what I am setup for using most of the time. I like this charger.

This is a 3 prong meaning it has the grounding prong. Any retailer or hardware store has the adapter that converts a 3-plug prong to a 2-plug prong but I would advise you check with an electrician before you consider this method. Hope this helps answer your question

I am using a 3-prong into a 2-prong adapter in my electricity 2-prong outlet. I have 4.50 amps. If you are in another country besides the United States, you would have a different outlet.
