Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Insten Universal World Wide Travel Charger Adapter Plug, White - by eForCity
Customer Review: Amazing for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
I paid 1 dollar for this product and I ordered two even though I needed only one at the moment. Now I think I should have ordered more to give away to friends who are traveling. I used it Europe and it worked great. I had to buy it b/c I bought a digital photo frame as a present for my parents and just realized later that the plug will not match. Then I drove around town and checked out all the `cheap` stores to buy one of these adapters. The cheapest one was like 9 dollars in Walmart and most others started at 14 dollars and were even a lot more bulky than this one. My mom is using this adapter continuously for 3 months now and she never had any problem with it.Customer Review: Works Well In Paris
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife and I used two of these in Paris last week, and they worked fine. We charged an iPhone and camera batteries for much of the week. They're small and light, and I imagine they'd be even more useful if you traveled all over the world in addition to Europe.
To reiterate what some others have said here, this is an adapter, not a converter. If you're using something in Europe that has a high watt rating, like a curling iron or a hair dryer, you NEED a voltage converter. I strongly recommend this one: STEREN 910-010 Dual Voltage foreign Converter Kit
Customer Review: get it before you leave--this is a bargain!
Summary: 5 Stars
Hey--I've seen essentially the same--even less functional--multi-plugs going for $25 or more in duty-free shops at airports or on board international flights. This thing is a STEAL. I have two of them. I travel frequently between Africa, Europe, and the USA, and commonly use British, American, and European plugsets. This one works with all of these, holds the plug snugly, and can pull a lot of watts besides. I've used mine at up to 1500 watts, no problems.
Just be aware--this is not a transformer, just a plug converter. You can piggy-back a transformer onto it (I have) if your equipment does not run on 110-240 v.
Customer Review: Quality product at a great value
Summary: 5 Stars
People who are giving these adapter plugs negative reviews obviously do not know how to use them. You need to utilize the locking mechanism or else the outlet won't fit into the socket snugly. However, if you use the lock, you won't have any trouble. I used several of these during a recent trip to London and Paris. France and the UK have different size outlets, and both converters on this adapter worked perfectly. Also, you won't find another good adapter at a lower price. I saw several other models at travel stores that are much, MUCH more expensive than these, and these work perfectly. Buy a few of them!Customer Review: Worked In England and France (March 2010)
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought two in preparation for an upcoming trip to Europe. At first we didn't think they would get to us in time, but the speedy shipment had them at our door the day before we left saving us $20+ dollars by possibly having to go and grab one at a chain store. They worked great for the different outlets we ran into in England and France - charging our phones and camcorder with no problems. EXCELLENT Value overall, very pleased with the purchase price and shipping speed. It would have cost us more to "rent" one. If this thing had a soul and opposable thumbs, I would trust it to babysit a child.
