Hi all ;
I am planning a vacation to Ireland and shopping for a travel adaptor.
All the ones that I find online state that they do not convert the
voltage - which is OK for the laptop converter - which will accept
240 volts 50 - 60 hertz ; and OK for USB charging ;
- but what about other 120 volt devices like my camera battery
charger - that are 120 volt input ?
Are there better adaptors available that reduce the voltage ?
or some other option ?

According to this guy, you only need an adapter to fit European
sockets since the European voltage is dual voltage.

I'm uncertain of it's validity.

NNNNOOOO...
What he said was the "gadgets" today are dual, NOT the electric supply
lines in Europe !!!

"Today's *gadgets* are "dual voltage," which means they work on both
American and European current. "
Yep, that went over my head. Thanks for clarifying.
